How often should fire extinguishers be inspected and maintained?
Regular inspections and maintenance are crucial for fire extinguisher performance and compliance. Generally, fire extinguishers should be visually inspected every 3 months, where they could receive professional maintenance as recommended by the Zambia Fire Safety Code.
Why do you charge for servicing? Don't you just update the service label?
While updating the service label is part of the servicing process, our charges encompass more than just that. Our trained technicians conduct a thorough inspection, perform maintenance tasks, and recharge the extinguisher if required. Additionally, our service charges also cover the expertise and resources required to provide top-notch service and ensure the extinguisher’s reliability and compliance with the Zambia Fire Safety Code.
How long does it take to service fire extinguisher?
The duration to service a fire extinguisher can vary depending on factors such as the type and condition of the extinguisher. However, on average, the servicing process typically takes between 5 to 15 minutes per extinguisher. Our technicians perform a thorough inspection, maintenance tasks, and necessary recharging, if applicable, to ensure the extinguisher’s reliability and compliance with the Zambia Fire Safety Code.
Why do you reject extinguishers with one dent, don't you recondition cylinders?
Our commitment to safety and quality standards drives us to uphold strict guidelines when it comes to accepting extinguishers. Extinguishers with one dent are rejected as a precautionary measure since dents can compromise the integrity of the cylinder, potentially leading to leakage or failure during operation. While we don’t recondition cylinders, we can provide assistance in safely disposing of or replacing damaged extinguishers.
Do you supply first Aid boxes?
Yes, we supply first aid boxes as part of our commitment to comprehensive safety solutions. Our first aid boxes are designed to meet industry standards and contain essential medical supplies to address minor injuries or provide initial aid before professional medical assistance is available.
