What fire extinguisher service Wexford actually involves
Under I.S. 291, every fire extinguisher on your premises needs a basic service every 12 months, a refill every 3 years, and is taken out of service at the 10-year mark. That means the certification tag on each unit and the paperwork on your wall cannot be more than 12 months old at any time. If they are, your compliance is out of date — and the moment a fire officer, insurance auditor, new tenant or any inspector asks to see your records, you’ll have a problem you do not want.

- Pressure checks, hose and valve inspection, seal verification
- Refill or recharge where required (every 3 years for stored-pressure units)

- Compliance paperwork ready for your insurance company, fire officer or HSA inspector

Common questions about fire extinguisher service Wexford
How often does a fire extinguisher need service?
Under I.S. 291, every fire extinguisher needs a basic service every 12 months. On top of that, stored-pressure extinguishers need a refill every 3 years, and every extinguisher is taken out of service at the 10-year mark. If your last service was over a year ago, your compliance paperwork is out of date and you should get it sorted before the auditors start asking questions.
Do you cover all of Wexford?
Yes — the whole county, not just Wexford town. Our yard is in Killinick and our vans are out across Wexford most days of the week servicing existing clients, so new work usually slots in within the week.
What happens to old extinguishers?
When an extinguisher reaches the 10-year mark, or is damaged beyond repair, we take it away and dispose of it responsibly. You get a new certified unit in its place and full paperwork showing the old one was retired correctly.
