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.
