As Florida’s construction landscape continues to grow, so do the life safety requirements mandated by local jurisdictions. One of the most pressing of these is the requirement for in-building Public Safety Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). Across counties such as Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Hillsborough, Duval, and Pinellas, enforcement of emergency communication codes is tightening—and failure to comply can lead to major setbacks, including the loss of a building’s Certificate of Occupancy.

Public Safety DAS ensures that emergency personnel—firefighters, police, EMTs—have seamless radio communication throughout every floor of a building, even in stairwells, elevators, and subterranean areas where signal strength is typically weak. These systems are no longer considered a “nice to have.” In many Florida counties, they’re mandatory by law for new construction and significant renovations.

At Allstate Power, we understand the urgency and complexity behind these mandates. With over 25 years of experience, we’ve positioned ourselves as a top-tier provider of Public Safety DAS solutions throughout Florida. From initial code consultation to final commissioning and monitoring, we guide building owners, developers, and facility managers through the entire compliance process—helping them avoid costly penalties, project delays, and safety risks.

Understanding the Risk: Compliance Isn’t Optional

Local authorities, including fire marshals and code enforcement agencies, are increasingly cracking down on non-compliant buildings. Without a certified Public Safety DAS in place, a building may be denied its Certificate of Occupancy or Conditional Use Permit. In worst-case scenarios, buildings already in use may be cited or even evacuated until compliant systems are installed and approved.

These policies are designed for good reason—ensuring the safety of both first responders and the occupants they’re protecting. But they also come with high stakes for building owners and managers. Delays in system installation or improper setup can stall occupancy, affect tenant move-ins, and cause ripple effects that disrupt entire projects.
