With the year coming to end, this is the perfect opportunity to have your list of routine maintenance checks done, ready for 2022. Make sure everything in your office or commercial space is in good working order, and that includes having your fire extinguishers checked.
How do you begin your fire extinguisher maintenance routine? How do you ensure your business isn’t affected by fire?
Here are a few things to take note of:
Take time to read the manufacturer's label.
Know the instructions on how to use, be aware of its manufacturing date and date of expiry. Also check if the label indicates its last date of fire extinguisher servicing.
Do a periodic visual inspection.
Check for dents, damage and signs of corrosion.
Recharge your fire extinguisher.
Whether or not the fire extinguisher still looks brand new even after months or years mounted on a wall, it still needs proper servicing and definitely needs to be recharged even if you don’t recall any incident where your fire extinguisher has been used.
