Fire Extinguishers

Supply & Installation: The Right Tool for the Job
Choosing the right extinguisher is complex; an incorrect choice can actually escalate a fire. We eliminate the guesswork by providing certified equipment and expert advice tailored to your environment.
Risk Assessment: We start with a detailed site survey to determine the fire risks present (Class A, B, C, D, or F—involving ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids/gases, electrical equipment, metals, or cooking oils).
Certified Supply: We supply a full range of high-quality, Kitemark-certified extinguishers, including Water, Foam, CO2, Dry Powder, and Wet Chemical models.
Strategic Installation: Our technicians install units in compliance with BS 5306, ensuring they are correctly positioned, mounted at the right height, clearly visible, and protected from damage, with appropriate signage provided.
Maintenance & Servicing: Always Ready for Action
A fire extinguisher is useless if it fails when you need it most. Regulatory standards, such as BS 5306-3, mandate regular servicing to ensure every unit is in perfect working order.
Annual Servicing: AW Fire and Safety conduct thorough annual inspections, checking pressure gauges, seals, safety pins, hoses, and general condition. We also perform a basic test discharge on a representative sample of units to confirm functionality.
Extended Servicing: Every five years (for most types), extinguishers require a full discharge and refurbishment (the “extended service”) or a replacement, ensuring all internal parts, especially CO2 cartridges and media, are replaced or tested.
Logbook Management: We manage all necessary documentation, providing signed inspection certificates and maintaining your site safety logbook for easy auditing and compliance checks.
Refilling & Recharging Service
Whether an extinguisher has been used completely or simply test-discharged during servicing, it requires immediate, professional attention to restore its protective capability.
Immediate Response: AW Fire Safety offers a rapid refill and recharge service for used extinguishers, getting them back into service as quickly as possible.
Professional Recharging: Our workshop is equipped to safely refill and repressurize units according to manufacturer specifications, using only the correct extinguishing agent and ensuring the container integrity remains sound.
Environmental Responsibility: We safely dispose of any old or condemned extinguishing agents in accordance with environmental regulations.
