Every piece of equipment, even the smallest, needs proper maintenance, and this is no different for fire extinguishers, which, in order to function efficiently and fulfil their task, should be subjected to a proper inspection that meets all safety requirements.<\/p>\n

The inspection should take place periodically in accordance with the manufacturer's operating and maintenance instructions for the fire extinguishing equipment in question - by convention we can assume that at least once a year. The inspection period for fire extinguishing equipment is usually six months, but due to conditions - external factors (e.g. high humidity) - of the room in which the extinguisher is kept, this validity may be even shorter.<\/p>\n

What about the fire extinguishing agent? It should be replaced at least once every five years.<\/p>\n

There are also courses available on Health and Safety<\/a> and UTB by training centres for: companies, schools, kindergartens, etc. In general, the inspection of firefighting equipment should be carried out wherever it is required, i.e. in spaces of potential danger: warehouses, production halls, offices.<\/p>\n
