FAQs
How often should fire extinguishers be serviced?
Fire extinguishers should generally be inspected and serviced every six months in accordance with Australian Standard AS 1851. Additional maintenance, pressure testing and servicing may be required at specified intervals depending on the extinguisher type, age and condition. Regular professional inspections help ensure fire extinguishers Arundel businesses and properties rely on remain compliant, fully operational and ready for use during a fire emergency.
How long do fire extinguishers last?
The lifespan of fire extinguishers Arundel businesses and property owners use depends on the extinguisher type, condition and maintenance history. Many portable fire extinguishers can remain in service for 5–10 years or longer when properly maintained and tested in accordance with Australian Standards. However, extinguishers showing signs of corrosion, damage, pressure loss or other defects may require earlier replacement. Regular six-monthly servicing helps ensure equipment remains safe, compliant and ready for use in an emergency.
What types of fire extinguishers are there?
There are several types of fire extinguishers Arundel businesses and property owners can use, including water, foam, dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide (CO₂), wet chemical and specialised extinguishers for combustible metal fires. Each type is designed to tackle specific fire classes, such as ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids, electrical equipment or cooking oils and fats. Selecting the correct extinguisher depends on the fire hazards present within the building. Professional advice can help ensure suitable fire extinguishers are installed to provide effective protection and meet relevant Australian Standards.
Where should fire extinguishers be located?
Fire extinguishers Arundel businesses and properties require should be installed in clearly visible, easily accessible locations, preferably near identified fire hazards and along appropriate exit routes. Extinguishers must be securely mounted, clearly identified with suitable signage and kept free from obstructions. The correct positioning and number of extinguishers depend on the building layout, occupancy and potential fire risks. Installation should comply with Australian Standard AS 2444 to ensure equipment can be located quickly and accessed safely during a fire emergency.
Can I service or inspect extinguishers myself?
Business owners and staff can carry out basic visual checks of fire extinguishers Arundel properties have installed, including looking for visible damage, missing safety pins, pressure gauge issues or blocked access. However, formal inspections, testing, recharging and maintenance should be performed by appropriately trained and competent fire protection technicians. Professional servicing in accordance with Australian Standard AS 1851 helps ensure extinguishers remain compliant, operational and ready for use during a fire emergency.
