Q. Why do P50 fire extinguishers not need to be serviced by a 3rd party extinguisher technician?
A.
P50 service-free fire extinguishers are constructed from components that will not corrode. So, unlike traditional stainless-steel extinguishers there is no need to replace parts that may have corroded over the 10-year period.
Q. Who can carry out the annual visual inspection for P50 fire extinguishers?
A.
Anyone in your organisation can complete the annual visual inspection for P50 service-free extinguishers. To ensure that they are competent in this simple process we train your staff as part of our installation package at no extra cost to you. We will issue staff with training certificates.
Want to see what the annual visual inspections entails? Here is a clear video guide that will show you just how easy it is to maintain your P50 extinguishers.
Q. Are service-free extinguishers accepted by insurance companies?
A.
Most major insurance companies have approved P50 service-free fire extinguishers. Insurance companies usually request that extinguishers are checked annually by a competent or responsible person. The guidelines for extinguisher servicing, the BS 5306-3: 2009 standard, also states that the responsible person should maintain the extinguishers. A responsible person is defined as someone who has had the correct training to carry out this annual inspection as outlined by the manufacturer.
The manufacturer gives clear guidance that only an annual visual check is required and as part of our installation package we will train your staff how to do this. We will provide your staff with a training certificate to demonstrate their competency in this process.
Q. What will I have to do to maintain my P50 fire extinguishers over the first 10 years?
A.
Unlike traditional steel fire extinguishers you will only need to carry out an annual visual inspection each year, there is no need to discharge and refill P50 service-free fire extinguishers after 5 years.
NB. As with all extinguishers you still need to do a monthly walk past of your extinguishers to ensure that they are in the correct position and have not been tampered with.
Q. P50 service-free fire extinguisher have a 20-year lifespan, other than the annual visual check, do I need to anything else in this 20-year period?
A.
Show All After 10 years you will need to have your P50 fire extinguisher factory refurbished. It will then last you another 10 years. Contact our customer care team and they can organise this for you.
