About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the fire/alarm bond actually guarantees

A fire suppression and alarm contractor license bond is a life-safety-code-compliance guarantee. When the City of Muncie licenses you to install fire suppression systems or alarms, it wants a financial backstop that you'll follow the City's fire and life-safety code and permit requirements.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Muncie (the obligee). If you violate the City's fire-protection ordinance or leave non-compliant work, the City can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. Let it lapse and the City can suspend your fire/alarm registration — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $5,000 filing continuous.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The bond runs to December 31 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.

Renewal falls on the statutory date, December 31, in the year your term ends.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with your license. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Muncie fire suppression / alarm contractor license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
