Fire extinguisher service
Equipment that works when it counts
Fire protection must be well-planned. A system you can have confidence in rests on three things.
- 1
Quality equipment must be used.
- 2
That equipment must be serviced and maintained on a regular basis.
- 3
Your people must know how to operate it in an emergency.
Up to code, with the least downtime
Your A+ Fire & Safety technician will help you determine if your suppression system and fire extinguishers are up to code, and give you a free, no-obligation bid to bring them into compliance.
We work to keep downtime to a minimum, even if that means working beyond normal business hours, and we work with local fire protection agencies to help you get the permits you need.
Our sales and service team will help you choose the right equipment and advise on placement to meet National Fire Protection Association standards. Our vehicles are equipped for on-site service and recharging.
A schedule built around you
We develop a service schedule based on your needs, your equipment and the codes that apply. Depending on the size and type of operation, inspections are weekly, monthly, quarterly or semi-annual, with maintenance every year.
We use current, state-of-the-art equipment for efficient, accurate service. Quality is assured with colour-coded seals and tags, and we fix external collar labels to dry chemical extinguishers when six-year maintenance is done.
