Fire extinguishers are an essential part of many workplace fire safety arrangements, providing an immediate means of tackling small fires and helping protect people and property. However, simply having extinguishers installed does not guarantee they will operate correctly in an emergency. Regular professional servicing is essential to check their condition, identify defects and ensure they remain suitable for use.
At Safe I.S., we provide professional fire extinguisher servicing and maintenance throughout Dudley, helping businesses, landlords, facilities managers and public sector organisations maintain reliable firefighting equipment. Our qualified engineers inspect every extinguisher in accordance with BS 5306-3:2017, checking pressure, weight, hoses, nozzles, operating mechanisms, safety seals and overall condition. We also replace the necessary small consumable components as part of our service.

1. How often should fire extinguishers be serviced?
BS 5306-3:2017 recommends a basic service at least every 12 months, carried out by a competent person.

Regular maintenance helps identify deterioration and confirm that equipment remains in suitable working condition.

Our engineers carry out a detailed inspection of every extinguisher. This includes checking pressure gauges, weighing units, examining hoses and nozzles, inspecting the body for damage or corrosion, checking safety pins and tamper seals, and confirming that operating instructions are legible. We also check mounting, positioning and signage before recording the results.
