Radiant Networks: Public Safety DAS
NFPA 1225 Compliance Is Not Optional, It’s Required
New National Fire Protection Association 1225 safety standards make compliance mandatory for all emergency communication systems. These rules require precise engineering, UL 2524-certified components, and ongoing testing to meet strict performance benchmarks. Planning early and working with certified experts is essential to avoid costly delays and ensure your building is safe and occupancy ready.
Our team handles everything; from site surveys and design to installation and annual testing so you stay fully compliant and protected.
NFPA 1225 and Your DAS/ERCES Compliance
NFPA 1225 sets strict standards for emergency communication systems, requiring precise engineering, UL 2524-certified components, and rigorous grid testing. Integrators must be certified and coordinate with Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) to ensure compliance.
The standard also mandates annual testing, real-time monitoring, and detailed maintenance logs. Building owners must plan early, integrating fire-rated pathways and compliant infrastructure during design to avoid costly retrofits or delays in obtaining a Certificate of Occupancy.

What is a Public Safety Grid Survey?
A Public Safety Grid Survey ensures your building meets emergency communication requirements for first responders. Radiant Networks Technicians measure radio and cellular signal strength throughout the building using a grid pattern to confirm coverage. If coverage falls short, enhancements like DAS or ERCES systems may be required. This survey is often mandatory for code compliance and occupancy approval, making it a critical step in your safety plan.
Benefits of a Grid Survey
Code Compliance – Meet NFPA 1225 and local jurisdiction requirements.
Occupancy Readiness – Avoid costly delays in obtaining your Certificate of Occupancy.
Enhanced Safety – Ensure reliable communication for emergency responders.
Future-Proof Design – Identify coverage gaps early and plan for long-term compliance

Regulatory Compliance
The release of NFPA 1225 marks a major shift in how emergency responder communication systems are managed in commercial buildings. What was once a niche concern is now a legal and operational requirement in most jurisdictions. Public Safety DAS and ERCES systems are no longer optional; they are essential for compliance and safety.
Why proactive compliance matters for building owners:
Enhanced Safety: Ensure reliable communication for first responders during emergencies.
Faster AHJ Approval: Streamline the permitting and inspection process.
Reduced Inspection Failures: Avoid costly delays and rework.
Improved Occupant Confidence: Demonstrate commitment to safety and preparedness.
Higher Property Value & Lower Insurance Rates: Compliance adds long-term value and trust.
