What is the required inspection frequency for fire extinguishers by a FDNY approved company?

The required inspection frequency for fire extinguishers by a FDNY approved company is annually. This annual inspection is essential to ensure that fire extinguishers are in proper working condition and ready for use in case of an emergency. During this inspection, the technician will check for signs of wear, verify that the extinguisher is charged, and ensure it has not been tampered with.

While other frequencies may apply to different types of maintenance or inspections, such as monthly visual checks by the owner or more extensive servicing every five years or more, the annual inspection by a certified company is a crucial requirement that helps maintain safety standards in indoor assembly places. This process is vital in maintaining compliance with fire safety regulations and ensuring the safety of occupants in the event of a fire.
