Is it Mandatory to Service Your Fire Extinguishers? 

As per the SCDF code of practise, it is an offence against the Fire Safety Act not to maintain your fire safety/protection equipment. This includes portable fire extinguishers, which must be serviced and re-certified by a TÜV SÜD PSB-approved workshop once a year. All extinguishers that went in for servicing must come with a TÜV SÜD PSB control tag.

For Commercial: According to the Code of Practice SS578. It is mandatory for all Fire Extinguishers to be serviced on a yearly basis.

For Residential: Ensure that your fire extinguisher is in optimal working condition.

 

When to Replace Fire Extinguishers?

In reference to Singapore Standards 578, below are the possible reasons for the disposal of fire extinguishers (but not limited to) are:

– Corrosion (rust)

– Mechanical damage from dents or abrasion

– Evidence of previous repairs (welding, soldering, brazing, etc.)

– Damaged threads

– Damaged sealing surface

– Broken hanger attachment

– Others: Ageing fire extinguisher.

An ageing fire extinguisher may have internal components that are worn off, especially the thread holding the valve. During discharge, the valve may break and fly off the pressurised cylinder. The flying object then turns into a deadly missile that could cause serious injuries.

The chemicals inside the extinguisher can degrade over time, making it less effective at extinguishing fires. Fire extinguishers should also be replaced if they have been used, damaged, or tampered with.
