About Us
Walschon Fire Protection, Inc. was founded in 1989 by George Walschon. George is a sprinkler fitter himself and has been in the industry since 1966. He and his wife, Dolores, started Walschon Fire Protection and have since expanded the company to almost 50 employees. We believe that being so involved in all of the working parts of the company is one of the reasons we have been successful in a competitive industry for the last two decades.
