HOW LONG DO FIRE EXTINGUISHERS LAST?
Equipment lifespan varies depending on the unit type. CO₂ extinguishers generally require a hydraulic test or replacement every 10 years. Most other types—including water, foam, wet chemical, and powder—have a service life of up to 20 years, provided they pass annual inspections. If you are unsure of the age or condition of your equipment, our team is here to help.
WHY FIRE EXTINGUISHER SERVICING MATTERS
Bee Compliant provides comprehensive fire extinguisher inspections and servicing to ensure your equipment is fully functional and fit for emergency use. Our engineers conduct rigorous checks on pressure levels, physical condition, and mounting placement, while verifying that the correct extinguisher types are situated for specific risks. We work closely with your designated Responsible Person (RP) to ensure your premises remain compliant with UK fire safety legislation. The RP is legally accountable for fire safety and is typically the:
-
Business Owner or Employer
-
Property Owner or Landlord
-
Facilities Manager
-
Building or Risk Assessor
Regardless of who holds the role, we work seamlessly with your Responsible Person to ensure all fire safety requirements are fully addressed and documented.
IS IT A LEGAL REQUIREMENT TO HAVE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS?
Yes. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 mandates that appropriate firefighting equipment must be provided and maintained in all business and public premises. Failure to provide adequate protection can lead to severe penalties, including unlimited fines and potential imprisonment. Bee Compliant is on hand to provide expert guidance to ensure you meet these statutory obligations. You may also consult your local Fire and Rescue Authority for further advice.
