Portable fire extinguisher inspection is usually carried out every twelve months, the idea behind it is to ensure that not only the extinguisher will work correctly if required, but also to ensure it will work safely.  A extinguisher that fails to work could cost a lot more than the few pounds it would have cost to have it inspected.

Why not have one of our fully trained and registered engineers carry out your annual inspection.  This inspection is carried out in accordance with BS5306 pt3:2009.

All extinguishers at some time have to be discharge tested and recharged (also known as extended service), we can carry this out on site, so causing very minimal disruption to your business. Refilling is carried out in accordance with BS 6643.

All our engineer's carry a copy of the required British Standards, you don't have to rely on just what you're  told needs doing and why, we can show you there and then.

There have been various updates to many Standards over the years.  The classic term 'its not a BS EN3 extinguisher' is no reason for it having to be replaced, that’s just someone trying to sell you a new extinguisher. Not all standards are retrospective, so do not apply to older equipment.
