Commercial fire extinguisher maintenance
In the event of any fire, extinguishers are vital – they are crucial in controlling flames before they get out of hand. Regular fire extinguisher inspection, fire extinguisher service and fire extinguisher maintenance of commercial extinguishers is essential to ensure effectiveness in emergency situations. Fire extinguishers are highly pressurised cylinders and if corroded or damaged, can explode and cause serious injury to staff.

Health and safety advice from British Standards specifies that fire extinguisher inspection and fire extinguisher maintenance should be performed annually and by a qualified person. Ensuring your fire extinguishers are always in perfect working order is an employer’s responsibility and Total Safe help to make sure this procedure is simple, inexpensive and carried out with the highest level of care.
