FAQs
How frequently should fire extinguishers be checked and serviced?
Fire extinguishers should be visually checked regularly (often monthly) and professionally serviced at least every six months in line with Australian Standards. Routine maintenance ensures they remain compliant and ready for use.
What is the expected service life of a fire extinguisher?
Most fire extinguishers have a lifespan of around 5 to 15 years, depending on the type and environment. Regular servicing can extend usability, but units must be replaced if they become damaged, fail testing, or reach the end of their service life.
Which types of fire extinguishers are suited to different fire risks?
Different extinguishers are designed for specific fire classes, including general combustibles (Class A), flammable liquids (Class B), electrical fires (Class E), and more. The correct type is selected based on the risks present within your building.
What are the correct locations for installing fire extinguishers?
Extinguishers should be installed in visible, easily accessible areas along exit paths, near high-risk zones, and in accordance with AS2444 guidelines. Proper placement ensures they can be quickly accessed in an emergency.
Is it possible to inspect or service fire extinguishers without a professional?
Basic visual checks can be carried out in-house, such as ensuring the unit is accessible and undamaged. However, formal servicing, testing, and certification must be completed by qualified technicians to meet compliance requirements.
