Fire Extinguisher Testing

We visually inspect every fire extinguisher in your building for signs of damage or deterioration. We also ensure that there is a regulation “Fire Extinguisher” sign placed above each extinguisher to help identify its location.

Testing:

We remove each extinguisher from its bracket and bag to check that:

• The pin has not been but can be removed.
• check that the pressure gauge indicates that pressure is at the appropriate level.
• We clean the equipment and replace it how we found it if not better.

Tagging:

Once testing is complete, we will apply a compliance label to indicate the testing schedule which applies for this type of extinguisher and the date next due for testing.

Reporting:

If the report indicates that any of your fire equipment is non-compliant and needs rectification or replacement, we will recommend a solution. This report along with all other maintenance records and reports will need to be retained, we are only a call or email away and we will keep your report on record just incase.

The Guiding Document

The inspection, test, and maintenance regime for fire extinguishers, fire blankets, & fire hose reels requires that they be serviced every 6 months as per Australian Standard AS 1851-2012.
