Fire Extinguisher Servicing
Commercial fire extinguisher maintenance
Fire extinguishers are vital in the event of a fire – they can assist in slowing down the spread of a fire, aid in evacuation and even put the fire out. Regular maintenance of commercial fire extinguishers is essential to ensure effectiveness in emergency situations. Modern fire extinguishers are highly pressurised cylinders, and if damaged or corroded, can explode and cause serious injury to staff and visitors.
‘The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005’, also known as the ‘RRO’ is the primary legislation in England used for all non-domestic premises, with a few minor exceptions.
The RRO specifies that maintenance of extinguishers should be performed annually and by a qualified person. Ensuring your fire extinguishers are serviced and maintained is the responsibility of the employer or building management and Train2Protect can help to make sure this procedure is simple, inexpensive and carried out correctly by BAFE certified engineers.
