I.S. 291Full rangeAnnual service and certification

Extinguishers are the cheapest part of a fire safety system and the part most often got wrong, usually by having the right number of units in the wrong places, or the wrong type sitting beside the risk it is supposed to cover.

We survey the building, work out what type belongs where, supply and mount the units with signage that can be seen from a distance, and service them annually with certification. Water, foam, CO2, dry powder and wet chemical, plus fixed point automatic units where a portable is not realistic.

The service cycle runs longer than a year. Stored pressure extinguishers get an extended service at around five years, and an overhaul or replacement at around ten, depending on type. Skipping those is how a business ends up with a wall of units that all fall due at once.

What the work covers

Survey and siting

The right type, beside the risk, on the escape route, at the right height, with signage that can be seen from a distance.

Annual basic service

Every unit checked, serviced and certified, with anything that fails listed rather than quietly swapped and billed.

Extended service and overhaul

Extended service on stored pressure units at around five years, overhaul or replacement at around ten, depending on the type.

Your monthly check

A visual check you do yourself: right unit, right place, seal intact, gauge in the green, nothing stacked in front of it.

Why people call us about this

Units past their service date, or with no date on them at all.

A CO2 unit beside a deep fat fryer, or water beside a distribution board.

A fit out that changed the layout and left extinguishers behind partitions.

An inspection coming up and no certification to show.

Start with a free site survey.

A technician walks the building with you and puts the findings in writing. It is free, there is no obligation to proceed, and the findings are yours either way.
