Healthcare
You Deserve Experts.We Have Them.
At Ahern, we ensure your healthcare facility safety systems and fire protection systems are meeting specific industry demands.
Fire protection in hospitals and other healthcare facilities come with unique challenges due to their large size, complex construction, and the critical nature of their operations. Healthcare fire safety systems such as hospital fire alarm and control, fire suppression, and fire sprinkler systems, along with fire equipment safeguard more than your building, which is why it is crucial they receive the proper care to function as designed. Partnering with an experienced company that understands the needs of your property is key.
Ahern has performed design, installation, and service work in 91% of Wisconsin’s hospitals, among several others throughout the Midwest. Whether you are looking to relocate a few sprinkler heads or maintain existing systems, remodel a clinic, or construct a 300+ bed hospital, we will deliver expert guidance to steer your project to success.
Best of all, we can provide multi-trade services into one integrated solution from start to finish, giving you a single point of contact throughout your entire project. To maximize your building’s efficiency, we have the expertise and resources to service or create the most effective building control systems to integrate HVAC controls with a building's lighting, security and other features.
From design, installation, maintenance, inspection and repair services for HVAC medical systems to hospital plumbing systems, we have experienced field teams and in-house fabrication resources to meet your project needs.
