Reasons to Have Your Fire Extinguisher Inspected:

   Make Sure It Works in an Emergency

• A fire extinguisher can lose pressure, become damaged, or expire without showing obvious signs.
  
  

• Regular inspections confirm:
  
  

  • It’s fully charged
    
    

  • It hasn’t been tampered with
    
    

  • It’s not blocked, rusted, or leaking
    
    

   Meet Fire Code & Legal Requirements

•      Most fire codes (like NFPA 10) require:
  
  

  • Monthly visual checks
    
    

  • Annual professional inspections
    
    

  • Periodic testing (hydrostatic testing every 5,6–12 years depending on type)
    
    

• Failing to inspect can result in fines, code violations, or shutdowns — especially in businesses, schools, or rental properties.
  
  

     Protect Lives and Property

• A properly working extinguisher can stop a small fire from becoming a big one.
  
  

• This can save lives, reduce injuries, and minimize property damage.
