What the code requires
How often do fire extinguishers need service in Massachusetts?
Every portable extinguisher needs a monthly check by you and a full inspection by a licensed company once a year. Depending on the type, it also needs internal maintenance every 6 years and a hydrostatic pressure test every 5 or 12 years. FireSafe keeps track of those dates and reminds you before each one is due.

FAQ
Common questions
Anything else, call us at 978-365-9100.
Under NFPA 10, you check each extinguisher monthly and a licensed company inspects it once a year. Stored-pressure dry chemical units also need internal maintenance every 6 years and a hydrostatic test every 12. Water and CO2 units are hydrostatically tested every 5 years.
It depends on how many extinguishers you have, their type, and which services they need. Call 978-365-9100 or send a request with your extinguisher count and we'll get back to you with a quote.
After any use, even a short one, and whenever the gauge needle sits in the red. Extinguishers can also lose pressure over time without being used, which your monthly check and our annual inspection will catch.
We exchange it. A used or low-pressure extinguisher is swapped for a comparable, completely refurbished unit that's charged and ready, so that spot is never left unprotected. How the exchange program works.
Our annual session meets the training requirements of OSHA 1910.157. You provide a room, a TV or projector, your employee list and a copy of your Emergency Action Plan.
