Stored-pressure dry chemical extinguishers have to come apart every six years for an internal examination. We empty the unit, inspect the shell and valve internally, replace worn parts, recharge and re-seal it.
At six years, a stored-pressure dry chemical extinguisher has to be opened up and inspected internally. It is not optional and a current annual tag does not cover it.
We empty the unit, inspect the shell and valve from the inside, replace the o-rings, gaskets and any worn components, recharge it with fresh agent and reseal it.
If it is cheaper to replace a unit than to rebuild it, we will tell you that before we start rather than after.
What is included

Questions we get
- How do I know if a unit is due for its six-year?
- It is recorded on the service tag. If the tag is missing or unreadable, we will evaluate the unit and tell you where it stands.
- Will I be without coverage?
- No. We can bring a serviced swap unit and hang it the same visit.
