A fire extinguisher recharge in Kenneth City is required any time you use your fire extinguisher, even if you accidentally release only a little bit. Losing even just a few milliseconds of pressure or chemical extinguishant could result in faulty fire extinguisher operation and potentially a fire that does not get extinguished in time to save your property from devastating damage.
While performing a fire extinguisher recharge in Kenneth City, the fire extinguisher must be opened, emptied of its contents, and the cylinder and parts must be inspected to insure proper working order. This is also know as “6 Year Maintenance”, a service which we provide at NO ADDITIONAL COST during a fire extinguisher recharge in Kenneth City.
After the recharge / Fire Extinguisher 6 Year Maintenance is completed, our technician will sticker the extinguisher with the type and date of maintenance. When the fire extinguisher is put into service at your location, it receives an additional certification tag, with the month and year that the extinguisher was inspected and installed and at your location. Fire Extinguisher Certification tags can be either a hanging paper tag or a sticker.

Like all equipment, fire extinguishers need to be serviced on a regular basis to ensure they are ready to work when needed. The State of Florida has adopted the recommendations of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) as the official guidelines for recharging and servicing fire extinguishers. All Florida Fire Equipment carefully follows the guidelines laid down in NFPA 10: Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers.
NFPA 10 outlines the steps required to ensure that your fire extinguisher will work as designed to provide you with a critical first line of defense against limited size fires. NFPA 10 covers the installation for Class A, B, C, D, and K hazards as well as criteria for inspection, maintenance, recharging and testing of portable fire extinguishers.
NFPA maintains a list of obsolete fire extinguishers that should be removed from service, and our technicians will make sure that your model is not on the obsolete list.
NFPA 10 rules require that a fire extinguisher should be recharged every six years, so be sure to check your unit to make sure that it’s not been more than six years since the last recharge. If you have any question on whether your fire extinguisher needs recharging, just bring it into ABCO Fire & Safety Inc, and we’ll quickly tell you if you need a recharge.
