Key Benefits
How often should fire extinguishers be inspected?
Fire extinguishers should be visually inspected monthly and undergo a full maintenance check annually by a qualified technician. If an extinguisher is used, it must be recharged immediately.
What type of fire extinguisher do I need for my business?
The type of extinguisher you need depends on the nature of your business and potential fire hazards. For example, an office may require ABC extinguishers, while a commercial kitchen needs Class K extinguishers.
Where should fire extinguishers be placed in a building?
Fire extinguishers should be installed in easily accessible locations along escape routes, near exits, and in areas where fire risks are higher, such as kitchens or equipment rooms.
