Fire Inspections
FIRE INSPECTION
Fire Inspections involve initial inspection and follow up inspection of checking Fire Extinguishers placement and other fire protection equipment by a fire marshall or AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) This Fire Inspection is the responsibility of the fire marshal or other city or government official. The actual servicing of the fire extinguishers and other fire protection equipment should be performed by a professional fire protection company such as FESCO Fire Extinguisher & Safety Service Company, LLC.
It is also a good idea to insure that there is a Fire Extinguishers and other fire protection equipment is properly serviced, maintained and tagged by a professional fire protection company before calling the fire inspector for the initial fire inspection, the follow up fire inspection or followup annual fire inspections.
Fire Inspector is the person performing the fire inspection who will either approve a business opening or make . for work to be performed and checked on the follow up fire inspection.
Many times we find that fire extinguishers in restaurants and other public places have not been inspected per Fire Inspection guidelines..
The next time you are in a restaurant check the fire extinguisher yourself after following the guidelines below.
BASIC Fire Inspection
- Check that the fire extinguisher is indeed where it belongs.
- Make sure that there is a fire extinguisher sign in place that can be seen from a reasonable distance.
- Look at the fire extinguisher gauge and check that the arrow is pointing upward in the green charged area.
- Make sure that the pull pin is in place.
- Make sure that there is a plastic tamper seal intact and holding the fire extinguisher pin in place.
- Make sure that the wall hanger is in place and not dislodge. Look closely at any screws or bolt and make sure they are secure.
- Look at the fire extinguisher exterior to make sure that it does not contain any large or deep rust, or dents.
- Check to see that the fire extinguisher handle/lever mechanism is intact and not bent. Also check the rivet holding this device together, to make sure it is not bent or missing.
