A group of our techs spent time at the ABC Training Facility getting hands-on experience with sweating and soldering copper.

Shoutout to Kurt Lingenfelder, Kevin Wilkins, John Gumphrey, Gage Oehler, Joe Dantoni, Nick Johnson, and Tristian Rosario for the great work, and thank you to lead technician, Loren Crookshanks for the time and effort you put into helping the team improve their craft. 🔥

This week our Maryland team was on-site at BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) inspecting a deluge fire sprinkler system ✈️💦

Unlike common wet pipe sprinkler systems that activate one head at a time, a deluge system releases water across the entire area all at once. In high-hazard environments like airports, that kind of rapid response can make all the difference.

It’s a reminder that a lot goes into keeping these terminals safe. And we're proud to be part of it for every traveler getting home, getting away, or just getting where they need to go.

Tom didn’t go looking for a career in fire protection. It found him the way it finds a lot of people: Someone mentioned it to someone, who mentioned it to someone else.

After completing his apprenticeship and working in the field, he saw an opportunity to move into project management. Now he leads a team and mentors the next generation of apprentices coming up behind him.

This we’re here to tell you that the career you never considered might be the one that changes everything. See where an apprenticeship at Encore can take you: https://encorefireprotection.com/about/apprenticeship-program/

“I knew that if I could make it through the program, I'd be in the best position to support my wife and kids."

Dan came to Encore as an auto mechanic with no experience in fire protection. Now he's a licensed journeyman who bought the house of his dreams and has the flexibility to grow in the field. His apprenticeship journey is proof that the right opportunity can change everything.

This we're celebrating our teammates who committed to the process and now have a career they're proud of.

Yesterday, April 23 was , and Encore’s North New Jersey office had such a great time that the kids are already asking to come back.

A big thank you to the Parsippany Fire Department and New Jersey State Police for inspiring the next generation of life safety professionals.

They’ve got a few years to go, but if this is the future of our team, we’re in very good hands. 🫡

Congrats to Encore apprentices, Anthony Gallo and Jake Riel who took the top two spots at the American Fire Sprinkler Association New England Chapter Trade Show Apprentice Competition in Manchester, NH — building a mock single system riser against the clock. 🥇🥈

Big credit to Install Tech, Gary Dumschott for mentoring these guys every step of the way. That’s what Encore excellence is all about.
