More than just a tag. Fire extinguisher inspection in Texas covers every service interval required by NFPA 10, with documentation for every unit at your facility.
Annual Inspection
Full NFPA 10 annual inspection with professional tagging and certification. We verify gauge pressure, agent weight, pin and tamper seal, and physical condition. You get a tag dated and signed by a certified technician.
6-Year Internal Examination
Disassembly, internal inspection, parts replacement, and reassembly. Required every 6 years for stored pressure extinguishers under NFPA 10. Ensures the cylinder and internal components are still serviceable.
Hydrostatic Testing
Pressure testing the cylinder to verify structural integrity. Required every 5 or 12 years depending on extinguisher type. Prevents catastrophic failures from cylinder fatigue or corrosion.
On-Site Recharging
Same-day recharging at your location after a discharge or pressure loss. We carry the most common agents on our trucks. No need to drop off equipment at a shop.
PASS Employee Training
On-site hands-on training for your staff. Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep. 30 minutes of training that gives your team confidence to stop a small fire before it spreads.

Fire Extinguisher Inspection in Texas: FAQ
Common questions about fire extinguisher inspection and maintenance in Texas.
How often do fire extinguishers need to be inspected in Texas?
NFPA 10 requires an annual fire extinguisher inspection in Texas by a certified professional. In addition, your staff should perform a quick visual check monthly to confirm the extinguisher is in place, the pin is intact, and the gauge is in the green. After any use or discharge, the extinguisher must be inspected and recharged before being returned to service.
What is the 6-year fire extinguisher maintenance?
Every six years, stored pressure extinguishers must have an internal examination and all mechanical parts replaced as needed. We disassemble the unit, inspect the internal cylinder walls, replace the o-rings, valve stem, and any worn components, then reassemble and recharge. The 6-year service tag documents that this was completed.
What is hydrostatic testing and when is it required for Texas fire extinguishers?
Hydrostatic testing fills the cylinder with water under pressure to verify the shell can handle its rated working pressure without failure. Most portable extinguishers require hydrostatic testing every 5 or 12 years depending on the extinguisher type. Cartridge-operated dry chemical units require 12-year testing. We perform testing on-site or at our facility.
Can you recharge a fire extinguisher after it was used?
Yes. We recharge fire extinguishers on-site with the correct agent and pressure. After a discharge, we also inspect the unit before recharging to confirm the cylinder and valve are still serviceable. A discharged extinguisher returned to service without recharging provides no protection.
What types of fire extinguishers do you service across Texas?
We service ABC dry chemical, CO2, wet chemical (Class K for commercial kitchens), halon replacement clean agents, and water-based extinguishers across Texas. We also service wheeled units and fixed suppression systems with portable backup extinguishers.
Do you provide PASS training for employees at Texas businesses?
Yes. We offer on-site PASS training for your staff at Texas businesses. PASS stands for Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep. Most employees have never actually operated a fire extinguisher. Training takes about 30 minutes and gives your staff the confidence to respond to a small fire before it grows.
How many fire extinguishers does my Texas building need?
NFPA 10 sets minimum requirements based on occupancy class and floor area. A light hazard office needs one extinguisher for roughly every 3,000 square feet. A commercial kitchen with Class K hazards needs a wet chemical unit within 30 feet of the cooking equipment. We assess your building and tell you exactly what you need to be compliant with Texas fire code.
