Properly maintained fire equipment can help save lives and your business.
Fire extinguishers are the fastest way of protecting your business when a fire occurs. Maintenance and regular inspections are very important to ensure that in the case of an emergency the equipment is fully functional.
Extinguisher testing is done in 6-month intervals, by way of a visual inspection of signage, accessibility to the extinguisher, mounting brackets, pressure gauges, safety pin, labels and the security tie. After a passed test has been achieved the service tag is punched with a number referring to the service or inspection carried out.
Pressure testing of extinguishers needs to be carried out every 5 years and the extinguisher contents are replaced at this time.
Portable Extinguishers
Majority of fires are first extinguished using a portable fire extinguisher, saving thousands of dollars in saved equipment as well as lives through the availability of having a properly functioning portable fire extinguisher.
Offices & Multi-dwellings require the correct sized and charged extinguishers to be on site in an accessible location. Depending on the size of the office/dwelling, more than one extinguisher may be required and a qualified technician can advise accordingly.
Australian Standard AS: 1851-2005 requires pressure testing of all extinguishers to be performed as required every 5 years from the date of manufacturing.
