From commercial real estate and creative office space to warehouses, our systems are engineered to keep your fire and life safety infrastructure compliant and operational.
  • Pre-Engineered Systems: As an Amerex and ANSUL Triple Diamond-level distributor operating out of our Golden Valley headquarters and expanded regional footprint, LVC’s certified technicians are authorized to install, inspect, and service specialized rapid response suppression systems engineered to deploy the moment a hazard is detected. From food trucks and large commercial kitchens to mobile equipment, heavy machinery, paint booths, and machine shops, LVC delivers targeted fire suppression systems for high-risk environments.
  • Special Hazard Fire Suppression: LVC’s special hazard suppression systems provide rapid fire extinguishment without water to protect high-value asset rooms, data centers, healthcare operating rooms, and a variety of commercial and industrial properties.

Our lineup ranges from 2.5-pound handheld portables to 350-pound wheeled units.
