Firefighter Air Replenishment Systems (FARS)

RKS Plumbing & Mechanical Inc. has been the premier Firefighter Air Rescue System (FARS) installer in Arizona for over 15 years. The FARS system is a complex breathing air system that allows firefighters to fill their breathing air bottles from within a burning building. In jurisdictions where the FARS is not implemented, the firefighters will have to replenish their breathing air bottles at the fire truck. This state-of-the-art system saves precious time in an emergency situation. RKS Plumbing & Mechanical Inc. takes tremendous pride in being the only subcontractor in Arizona permitted to fulfill the Firefighter Air Replenishment Systems Testing & Certification process.

We are proud to be a certified installer for FARS, the industry leader in firefighter air replenishment systems (FARS).

FARS is a building-installed system that delivers air replenishment to firefighters at fill stations located throughout a large structure, including high-rises, big box-style buildings, and tunnels.

FARS are a major technological advancement in modern firefighting, and vastly improve life safety for firefighters and the citizens they protect.

Buildings in 20 states and Canada are equipped with FARS, and FARS are required in more than 100 jurisdictions from coast to coast. That number is growing, as every year, more cities add this requirement to their fire codes. Call us today! (602) 996-1866 for a bid on your next project!
