24-Hour Emergency Fire Watch in Tampa Bay
An unexpected fire alarm or sprinkler failure calls for prompt coordination, not an assumed arrival promise. Phoenix Fire Watch accepts emergency calls and fire watch service requests 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

First-Hour Coordination After a System Failure
If fire or smoke is present, call 911 and follow the property’s emergency procedures. Do not treat a coverage request as an emergency-services call. For a system impairment, begin coordination as soon as you discover the problem; do not wait for a threshold to pass.
- Notify the responsible AHJ and alarm or sprinkler company according to the property’s impairment procedures and their instructions
- Identify the address, affected buildings, floors or zones, and whether occupants remain on site
- Call Phoenix Fire Watch with the needed start time and any AHJ directions
- Arrange an on-site contact, entry access, keys, and the contractor’s expected repair window
Starting and Continuing Coverage
Before staffing is confirmed, share patrol instructions, access restrictions, and communication arrangements. During coverage, officers document rounds and report observations to the designated contact. Tell dispatch if the impairment or repair timeline changes.
The AHJ Decides the Requirement
The authority having jurisdiction decides whether fire watch is required, whether occupancy can continue, and when the watch can end. We do not approve continued occupancy or restore systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I call for emergency fire watch on a holiday?
Yes. Calls and service requests are accepted 24/7/365, including holidays. Staffing availability and an arrival estimate are confirmed on the call.
Should I wait an hour before requesting coverage?
No. Begin impairment coordination promptly and follow your AHJ and contractor’s instructions. The first-hour checklist is planning guidance, not a waiting period.
What if the alarm and sprinklers are both affected?
Tell us both systems are impaired and identify the affected areas. Share the AHJ’s directions so the coverage scope can account for the situation.
Who should meet the arriving officer?
Arrange a designated on-site contact who can provide access, explain affected areas, and share current site and AHJ instructions.
Can emergency fire watch continue into the next shift?
Contact dispatch as soon as you know more coverage is needed. We confirm continued staffing; do not assume the watch can end because a repair visit is over.
