Fire Extinguisher Inspection and Certification

In the event of a fire, a working extinguisher is your first line of defence. Used properly, it’s the tool that can stop a small incident from turning into a major emergency, protecting your people, your facility, and your business.

However, simply having an extinguisher on the wall doesn’t guarantee it will work when you need it most. To ensure it performs flawlessly, regular professional servicing is essential, and it’s a legal requirement under UK law.

At Via Trium, we provide comprehensive maintenance to keep your equipment in top condition and emergency ready. Our service ensures full compliance with fire safety regulations, giving you complete peace of mind.

How Do We Maintain and Certify Your Extinguishers?

Check the pressure gauge to ensure the extinguisher is correctly pressurised.
Verify the weight of the extinguisher to check for any loss of the extinguishing agent.
Replace all necessary small consumable parts, such as “O” rings and tags.
Inspect the hose and nozzle for blockages, cracks, or signs of wear and tear.

Complete and external examination for any signs of corrosion, dents, or damage.
Check and confirm the operating instructions are clean, clear, and correct for the type of extinguisher.
Ensure the extinguisher is correctly mounted and has the appropriate signage.
Report any non-compliances, such as failed discharge tests.

Complete and hand over the required paperwork to the client. Contracted clients will find the details on their client portal.
Create or update the asset register detailing the location, extinguisher type, condition upon testing, and any relevant notes.
Update the service label on the body of the extinguisher, providing a clear record of the inspection date and results.
