3. How do I find out which Fire Prevention inspections I need?

Businesses, restaurants, apartment buildings and institutions in Cranberry outfitted with either fire alarms, sprinklers, or hood systems must have a licensed third-party professional test those systems and report the results to the Township either annually or semi-annually, depending on the building use and system type. Application forms to request an inspection and letters notifying property owners of their inspection dates are mailed by the Township.
