portable fire extinguisher service maryland md dc virginia va

When used properly, fire extinguishers can save lives and property by putting out a small fire or controlling a fire until additional help arrives.

WE HELP YOU CHOOSE
Let Guardian Fire’s licensed technicians and knowledgeable staff help you choose the correct size, number, and type of extinguishers for your Maryland (MD), Washington, DC or Virginia (VA) location. We can save you money by strategically installing new portable fire extinguishers while abiding by the fire code requirements.
WE TRAIN YOUR PEOPLE
To extinguish a fire with a portable extinguisher, a person must have immediate access to the fire extinguisher, know how to actuate the unit, and know how to apply the agent effectively. Guardian Fire can provide comprehensive on site training for your group of employees to properly and safely use portable fire extinguishers.
WE KEEP YOUR EQUIPMENT INSPECTED & SERVICED
We keep your fire extinguishers serviced and ready when you need them. We perform routine fire extinguisher inspection, testing and maintenance. All of our portable extinguisher technicians are trained, tested and licensed to service and recharge portable fire extinguishers.
  • Annual Inspections - The NFPA 10 and your local jurisdiction require fire extinguisher inspections, as detailed under REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS on the right.
  • 6-Year Maintenance - The fire extinguisher is broken down and checked for damage. The “O” ring and gaskets are replaced and the extinguisher is recharged.
  • Hydro Test - Every 12 years the fire extinguisher is broken down and emptied. The cylinder is tested for defects. If the cylinder passes it is recharged and put back in service. (Required every 5 years for CO2, Water and K Class fire extinguishers.)

Guardian Fire professionals are ready to support your Maryland (MD), Washington, DC or Virginia (VA) organization’s fire protection systems and service requests 24 hours a day. Call now for more information about fire extinguishers.
