FAQ
Frequently asked
Do you install new Gamewell-FCI systems in California?
Yes. Fireside Security is a licensed C-10 contractor and an experienced Gamewell-FCI integrator across California. We handle design, permit submittal, installation, commissioning, and acceptance testing.
Can you take over service on an existing Gamewell-FCI system?
Yes. We routinely take over Gamewell-FCI systems installed by other contractors. We start with a full site survey, verify programming, replace end-of-life components, and bring documentation current.
Do you monitor Gamewell-FCI fire alarm panels at a UL-Listed central station?
Yes. All monitoring is delivered from a UL 864 Listed central station over dual-path IP + LTE-M cellular — no dependency on copper POTS lines being retired in 2026.
