Ensure your facility is safe, compliant, and ready for emergencies. We provide professional fire extinguisher inspection, certification, testing, recharge, maintenance, and replacement services for commercial and residential properties.
Comprehensive solutions to keep your fire protection equipment compliant and fully operational.
It is critical to regularly monitor the condition of your fire extinguishers. Knowing what signs to look for can mean the difference between an extinguisher that works flawlessly and one that fails during an emergency. We provide immediate attention for any of the following issues:
We follow a rigorous, standardized process to inspect your fire extinguishers and restore them to proper working order.
We carefully examine each extinguisher for physical damage, corrosion, and overall condition to identify obvious signs of wear.
The hose, nozzle, tamper seal, safety pin, and operating mechanisms are closely checked for blockages, damage, or malfunction.
We verify that the pressure gauge is in the operable range and conduct weight checks on specific models to confirm sufficient charge.
If an extinguisher requires a recharge, 6-year maintenance, or hydrostatic testing, our technicians perform these services following strict protocols.
Extinguishers that meet all criteria receive a signed and dated certification tag, signifying their readiness for service.
You receive a thorough report detailing the status of all your extinguishers, serving as your official record for compliance purposes.
We specialize in commercial fire extinguisher service across a broad range of facility types, ensuring each environment has the correct type and placement of equipment.
To keep your building protected and compliant, your portable fire extinguishers must meet the rigorous standards established by NFPA 10. Our service protocols align closely with these requirements as well as applicable state and local fire codes, ensuring your equipment is correctly serviced.

View Annual Inspection ChecklistWe provide prompt, professional fire extinguisher service throughout the region.
Fire extinguishers must be visually inspected monthly by facility staff, and require a professional, certified inspection every year per NFPA 10 standards. Certain extinguishers also require internal maintenance at 6-year intervals and hydrostatic testing at 12-year intervals.
Yes, in most cases. A partially or fully discharged fire extinguisher can be professionally recharged, provided the cylinder itself has not reached the end of its useful life, is not damaged, and passes all necessary inspections.
If a fire extinguisher is losing pressure, our technicians will inspect it for leaks around the valve assembly, O-rings, or cylinder. Depending on the issue and age of the unit, we will either perform necessary repairs and recharge it, or recommend replacement.
Extinguishers typically need replacement if they exhibit severe corrosion, dents, or physical damage, if they fail a hydrostatic test, if parts are obsolete, or if they have reached the end of their service life (such as disposable units older than 12 years).
An annual inspection includes a thorough visual examination for damage or corrosion, checking the pressure gauge, confirming weight (for specific types like CO2), inspecting the pull pin and tamper seal, and attaching a new certification tag.
Yes, all portable fire extinguishers in commercial, industrial, and multi-family residential buildings require annual certification and tagging by a licensed fire protection professional to remain compliant with state and local fire codes.
