Fire Extinguisher Inspections

Property managers are responsible for ensuring their fire extinguishers are fully functional by scheduling routine fire extinguisher inspections. Monthly inspections should take place to verify your fire extinguisher doesn’t need immediate repair or replacement.

Your monthly inspection should check the visibility of labels, ensure no tampering attempts have been made, and examine the overall integrity of the extinguisher for obvious damage, among other things.

In addition to your monthly inspection, an annual inspection and formal testing must be performed by your local fire protection company. A professional team will certify that the fire extinguisher meets industry standards, documenting the verification in your extinguisher’s maintenance log.

You’ll also need to perform an internal inspection and test every six years with your local fire protection company to ensure your fire extinguisher’s internal function is up to standard.
