Why Do Fire Extinguishers Need Servicing?


Fire extinguishers must be serviced regularly to guarantee success when needed. When a fire breaks out, the extinguisher must function correctly. A malfunctioning extinguisher may cause a fire to spread, inflicting further damage and endangering lives.


You may believe that it will not need servicing since an extinguisher has not been used. This is not correct. An extinguisher might fail due to corrosion, damage, or a loss of in-cylinder pressure. Instead, don't take the chance; get your extinguishers serviced for complete peace of mind.
