Extinguisher Service at Your Location

Annual extinguisher service does not require taking the units anywhere. The technician goes through the building, inspects each extinguisher where it is mounted, and tags it. That includes checking weight and pressure, the hose and nozzle, the handle and pin, and the bracket, and making sure the unit matches the hazard. A kitchen needs a Class K unit. A room full of electrical gear is better served by CO2 than by dry chemical powder.

California Title 19 sets the schedule: service every year, internal maintenance at six years for rechargeable dry chemical units, and a hydrostatic cylinder test at twelve years, or five years for CO2. Units due for the longer intervals are pulled, serviced, and returned.

Call Between Annual Visits If

• The gauge needle is outside the green
• The pin or tamper seal is missing
• The unit was used, even for a second
• The shell is dented or rusted at the base
• The hose is cracked or the nozzle is plugged
• The extinguisher is missing from its bracket

Madera County wineries keep extinguishers in barrel rooms, on bottling lines, in tasting rooms, and on forklifts. Processing plants and the industrial sites along Highway 99 have dozens of units spread across production floors, maintenance shops, and yards. On sites that size, we keep an inventory by location so every unit is accounted for at each visit.

Schools, churches, and government buildings are inspected by the fire department like any business. They tend to have extinguishers in kitchens, shops, gyms, and boiler rooms that are easy to miss, and kitchen hood systems in cafeterias that need service every six months.

Records for the Fire Inspector

After service you receive a report that lists each extinguisher, where it is, its type and size, what was done, and when the next six-year and hydrostatic dates fall. Keep it with your fire inspection file. When an inspector visits, a current tag on the unit and that report are what they look for.

Other Services

We also test exit signs and emergency lights, service kitchen hood suppression systems, and inspect fire sprinkler systems. The full list is on the fire extinguisher services page.
