Every residential and commercial building, no matter how safe, is prone to the hazard of fire. That is why the governing bodies impose rules, codes, and regulations to ensure minimum damage during emergencies.
Installation of fire extinguishers is one such rule. However, your work does not end with installation. For maximum protection, you should also focus on the regular maintenance of fire extinguishers. Since this equipment is often considered the first counter for fire, you should always ensure they are in the best shape. A well-maintained fire extinguisher will be invaluable in the face of a threat. The inhabitants can use it to put out a small fire or keep it under control until help arrives.

According to the codes and ethics, all fire extinguishers should go through monthly checks. At GIG, we will send a trained expert to test all of your fire extinguishers. These inspections will be thorough. We will check nozzles, pressure gauge, the weight of the extinguisher, safety pull pin, etc. In addition to a thorough inspection, we will also conduct a small service to ensure proper functioning. Our service includes cleaning of the fire extinguisher, installation of new tamper seal, and complete inspection of valve assembly (replacing the non-working parts if required). Our professionals will also conduct a small demo to ensure all occupants can operate the fire extinguisher during an emergency.
In addition to monthly inspections, the fire extinguishers need proper maintenance every year. Thus, at GIG, we offer annual maintenance of fire extinguishers in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. All the monthly tests will have a record to do follow-up checks, and equipment also goes through checks.
During our yearly maintenance, we will start by visually inspecting the fire extinguishers and pointing out the signs of physical damage. Our maintenance package also includes inspection of the unit for corrosion, verifying the nozzle, checking the operating instructions, reviewing the presence of HMIS, and fixing issues that we may discover. After the annual maintenance completes, we install a tamper seal to indicate the successful completion of the maintenance process.
With GIG, you not only get the benefit of monthly inspection and annual maintenance, but you also get a 5-year test. A five-year hydrostatic test is mandatory to check carbon dioxide and water extinguishers. During this test, we will check for general wear and tear of the unit, the position, and functioning of the nozzle, weight of the cylinder, etc. Additionally, we will also conduct a review test for the level of carbon dioxide and water in the cylinder. If the levels are not up to the mark, our team will recharge it and place a tamper seal to indicate that the unit is not in working condition.
