AFFF Replacement Services in Everett – The Ultimate Act of Love for Your Facility and Planet

What better way to show some love this year than by protecting both your facility and the environment? With AFFF replacement services from Compass Fire Protection, Everett businesses can transition to safer, PFAS-free firefighting foams that safeguard against fire hazards without harming the planet. As Washington State approaches the 2025 deadline to phase out AFFF (Aqueous Film-Forming Foam) containing toxic PFAS chemicals, now is the perfect time to make the switch.

Why Replace AFFF?

For decades, AFFF was the industry standard for tackling high-risk fires involving flammable liquids. However, it came with a hidden danger: the PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) found in AFFF don’t break down easily and have been shown to contaminate water supplies, soil, and ecosystems. These “forever chemicals” linger for decades, increasing the risk of health complications, including cancer and immune system dysfunction.

In response, Washington and other states are cracking down, requiring facilities to transition away from AFFF-based systems by 2025. By replacing outdated systems now, you’ll not only stay compliant with regulations—you’ll actively contribute to a cleaner, healthier future.

PFAS-Free Fire Suppression Solutions

We offer a variety of eco-friendly AFFF alternatives tailored to your facility’s unique fire risks:

• Fluorine-Free Foams: These advanced foams provide the same powerful fire suppression as traditional AFFF, but without the harmful environmental impact. They are perfect for industrial facilities, warehouses, and fuel storage areas.
• Water Mist Systems: Using less water than traditional sprinklers, water mist systems effectively suppress fires while reducing water damage and environmental strain.
• Clean Agent Systems: Ideal for data centers and other sensitive environments, clean agents use non-toxic gases to suppress fires without leaving residue.
• Foam-Water Hybrid Systems: For facilities requiring comprehensive coverage, hybrid systems combine water and foam-based suppression for added protection.

Benefits of AFFF Replacement

1. Environmental Protection: By eliminating PFAS from your fire protection system, you prevent further contamination of Everett’s waterways and soil, contributing to a healthier community.
2. Compliance with Regulations: Meet Washington’s 2025 mandate while avoiding fines and costly last-minute retrofits.
3. Healthier Workspaces: Reduce exposure to toxic chemicals, creating a safer environment for employees and customers.
4. Long-Term Savings: Avoid the financial burden of potential cleanup costs, legal liabilities, and equipment damage from outdated systems.
