Fire Extinguisher Inspection

In trained hands, a fire extinguisher offers a chance to escape a fire safely, and it can even provide the means to stop a flame before it gets out of control. Properly selected and placed fire extinguishers are an integral part of your business’s fire protection plan. But simply keeping them on-site is not enough—extinguishers must be thoroughly inspected on a routine basis.

If you require fire extinguisher inspections and testing, rely on the industry veterans at Guardian Fire Protection. We are a full-service fire protection company that has been serving commercial and industrial clients for over 40 years by offering our comprehensive knowledge and extensive training to provide businesses in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC with a single source for all of their fire safety needs.

How Often Do Fire Extinguishers Need Inspection?

Guidelines for fire extinguisher inspection are set by the NFPA and enforced by OSHA. It is necessary that you develop a routine on-site inspection with your own personnel on a monthly basis, checking for any visual signs of damage or discharge, improper tagging, etc.

In addition to your own inspections, yearly inspections performed by a trained, certified fire protection specialist must take place. These inspections have to follow strict standards, and they require extensive documentation.
