Fire Extinguisher Inspection

Fire extinguisher inspection is the annual certified service that keeps every portable fire extinguisher in your building ready to operate — and your building compliant with NFPA 10 and the Ontario Fire Code. Owners are responsible for monthly visual checks, but the certified inspection, recharge and tagging must be performed by a qualified technician at least every twelve months.

First National Fire Protection inspects, services and tags every class of fire extinguisher across Ontario — ABC dry chemical, CO₂, wet chemical Class K, clean agent, water mist and Class D. We carry replacement stock on every truck so any deficiency we find can be resolved in the same visit.

Multi-site portfolios benefit from our scheduled fire extinguisher inspection program: every unit barcoded, tracked, and re-served on schedule with one consolidated report.

Under NFPA 10 and the Ontario Fire Code, every commercial occupancy must have its portable fire extinguishers professionally inspected and tagged every twelve months, internally examined every six years, and hydrostatically tested every twelve years. An out-of-date or missing tag is one of the most common deficiencies cited by fire prevention officers in Ontario.

Insurers routinely deny claims when extinguishers are found to be out of service date. A current fire extinguisher inspection program is one of the cheapest, fastest ways to protect your coverage and your occupants.
