Service by Competent ProfessionalsThe servicing must be carried out by a ‘competent person’. The easiest method of proving competence is to use engineers qualified under a scheme such as the FIA / FETA training course.

Extinguisher Servicing PricesExtinguisher servicing can seem confusing at times to business owners with fluctuating annual bills and regular replacement of devices. However it doesn’t have to be so complicated. The rules on extinguisher servicing are quite simple.

Onsite CommissioningMany internet sales that purport to be British standard are often cheap, and potentially dangerous, Chinese imports. To meet the British Standard extinguishers must be commissioned on site with all the initial findings noted on the service label. This cannot be done on a sale only basis. The commissioning engineer should be competent (e.g. FIA trained).
