A BS ISO 9001 quality-assured fire extinguisher programme designed to ensure that both work effectively in the event of a fire.

   Why do I need it?

Over time, fire extinguishers can deteriorate and require regular maintenance to ensure that the extinguisher works to extinguish the fire when needed.

Without a maintenance programme you have no warning or defence against fire. You will also jeopardise any associated fire insurance claim if you have failed to maintain your equipment and the necessary records.

   What is the legal requirement?

Employers must undertake a fire risk assessment. A designated member of staff responsible for Health & Safety is accountable for the servicing of fire extinguishers.

Employers are also required to ensure that, where fitted, any fire protection equipment is maintained to the relevant standard (The Regulatory Reform Order (2005) Fire Safety Order) and records kept.
