The Fireline Corporation is a Maryland corporation founded in 1947 by John S. Waters. As a pioneer in the fledgling fire equipment distribution business, John Waters soon saw the benefits of offering exemplary service and high quality products at a fair price. Fireline has lived by this standard for over 60 years and the tradition continues even today. Fireline grew into one of the nation's premier fire equipment distributors during the 1950's and quickly took on new and innovative products as they became available. In the 1960's, Fireline was one of the first companies to promote the use of multi-purpose dry chemical extinguishers and kitchen hood and duct fire suppression systems. In the late 1960's, Fireline became a Pyrotronics fire alarm distributor and a Fenwal Halon 1301 distributor. These manufacturers, and many more systems oriented product lines are still sold by Fireline on a daily basis. In the 1960's a group of fire equipment distributors from around the country met in Chicago at the National Safety Congress and put together the industry's first trade association. The association become known as the National Association of Fire Equipment Distributors (NAFED) and Fireline is one of its Charter Members. Fireline's founder and then President, John Waters, was instrumental in getting this organization off to a healthy start. John Waters was elected as the third President of the NAFED in 1965. Fireline continued to grow throughout the 1970's. It became one of the largest portables and special systems distributors in the country and in 1982, Stephen Waters succeeded his father as President of Fireline. Continuing Fireline's support of NAFED, Stephen Waters served as Director of Region 1 and later as President of NAFED from 1985-1987. Fireline is also a member of the Fire Suppression Systems Association (FSSA), the American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Stephen Waters currently sits on two technical committees, NFPA 12A, Halon Fire Extinguishing Systems, and NFPA 2001, Alternative Protection Options for Halon. The Fireline Corporation strongly believes that quality in both the products it sells and the services it supplies are essential to operating a fire equipment distributorship. Our management, installation and service personnel reflect the desire to provide quality workmanship at a fair price. The company has two offices. Our main facility is located in Baltimore, Maryland with a branch operation in Leesburg, Virginia. We currently employ over one hundred and fifty people.Fireline Corporation Address
