I tried for an hour to place a system on test. Sat on hold for half an hour receiver picked up and hung up, tried again same result. I do not recommend using Bartec for your fire alarm monitoring and will be considering a report to the ULC monitoring inspector for these repeated issues.

No problem, I will gladly write a review that explains the one star. I backed into a fire extinguisher box with my car a couple of months ago and damaged it. The extinguisher was untouched. Something that seemed pretty straight forward to replace, I went instantly to report what I had done. Fast forward to last week, I noticed the box had been fixed and then noticed a nice invoice from your company. I was charged for the box, of course, and also charged a service fee of more than double what it cost to replace the damaged box. Seeing as one of your service vans are at my building weekly, Im

We are a 24 unit strata complex and today was the first time using Bartec for annual testing of fire safety equipment. We were very impressed by the professionalism of the crew, the quickness of their work and the pleasant mannerism. We will definitely be using them for all our future servicing.
