Fire Extinguisher Inspection in Houston, TX
Annual Inspections, Tagged and Logged
Every portable fire extinguisher in a commercial building needs an annual inspection and maintenance under NFPA 10, and fire marshals look for a current tag on every unit. Spartan Fire Protection inspects fire extinguishers for businesses across Houston, Katy, Sugar Land, Cypress, Spring, The Woodlands, Pasadena, Pearland and the rest of Greater Houston.
Our technicians check each unit, tag it, log it and tell you about anything that needs recharging, testing or replacing.

Fire Extinguisher Inspection Questions
How often do fire extinguishers need to be inspected?
NFPA 10 calls for a quick visual check every month and an annual inspection and maintenance by a licensed company. Some extinguishers also need 6-year maintenance and periodic hydrostatic testing.
What does the inspection tag show?
The tag records the date of the last annual inspection and who performed it. Fire marshals check that every extinguisher has a current tag.
What if an extinguisher fails inspection?
We tell you why and recharge, repair or replace it, so every unit leaves compliant.
