Fire Extinguisher Recharge and Repair Services 

Ready When You Need Them

Imagine reaching for a fire extinguisher during an emergency only to find that it won’t discharge — a potentially catastrophic scenario. At B&C Fire Safety, we ensure that this never happens by keeping your extinguishers fully charged and operational. 

After Use

Fire extinguishers must be recharged immediately after any use, no matter how little they were used. This ensures they are always prepared for full deployment. Our team provides quick and thorough recharging services to restore your extinguishers to full capacity without delay.

Scheduled Recharges

Even without activation, extinguishers can lose charge over time. To prevent any surprises during critical moments, we conduct routine inspections and recharges as part of our ongoing maintenance schedule. These regular check-ups keep your extinguishers ready and effective, safeguarding your facility against unforeseen fire emergencies.

Why Regular Fire Extinguisher Service is Critical

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), properly maintained fire extinguishers are successful in extinguishing fires in over 80% of reported incidents, underscoring the importance of regular service.

Fire extinguishers can become depressurized, lose their charge, or simply expire, each scenario rendering them ineffective when you need them most. Regular checks and recharges by certified technicians are essential to ensure they function as intended throughout their finite lifespan. Unfortunately, many are unaware that without proper maintenance, fire extinguishers become heavy, decorative objects rather than life-saving equipment.

Professional servicing plays a crucial role in fire safety, helping to prevent potential damage and protect lives. A well-maintained extinguisher is significantly more reliable and effective in controlling fires, preventing small flames from becoming destructive infernos.
