Extinguisher Service
All services we provide for hand portable fire extinguishers are performed in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. Our state certified extinguisher technicians can review your facility making sure you have the right extinguisher in the right location. We inspect, service, test and repair all manufacturers and classifications of hand portable fire extinguishers.
- Monthly Inspections. The NFPA requires inspection of your extinguisher every month. During this check our technician will visually inspect the unit, clean, check pull pin as well as provide documentation of the inspection.
- Annual Maintenance. An inspection of each of your extinguishers is often required by NFPA or the local AHJ. Depending on your jurisdiction and the type of unit the inspection may need to be performed by a licensed professional.
- Internal Maintenance and hydrostatic testing. Stored pressure ABC extinguishers are very common, and they often require internal maintenance every 6 years and hydrostatic testing every 12 years. Other types of extinguishers may vary in their internal examination and testing intervals.
Training
Having your employees trained to properly use a fire extinguisher is important. In fact, giving you confidence to react quickly during an emergency is a big part of helping you protect your people and your business. Through hands‐on training with fire simulations in a safe learning environment, our instructors will educate your staff on the basics of fire extinguisher locations, common fire hazards, proper procedures, safe evacuation routes, and more.

Maintaining the safety of a commercial kitchen is of vital importance to the restaurant industry. All services we provide for kitchen suppression systems are performed in accordance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. Our state certified system technicians can install, inspect, service, test and repair your kitchen suppression system.
- Help you stay compliant. Ongoing servicing is usually required by the NFPA (NFPA17A) in addition to state and local fire safety authorities. Fines can be assessed for non‐compliance to these guidelines.
- Keep your equipment in peak condition. Most kitchen fire suppression systems require regular testing and consistent inspections to continue functioning properly, and manufacturers recommend that these inspections are performed by a trained and certified technician.
- Increase insurance coverage eligibility. Insurance companies may not cover damages caused by fire unless a company has documented that routine inspections and maintenance have been performed on their kitchen suppression system.
- Promote safety. Most important of all, having your suppression system routinely serviced can protect your employees and property during a fire.
