Fire Extinguisher Maintenance throughout Scotland

Why do I need it?

Over time, fire extinguishers can deteriorate and require regular maintenance to ensure that extinguishers work to extinguish a fire when needed.

Without a maintenance programme you have no warning or defence against fire. You will also jeopardise any associated fire insurance claim if you have failed to maintain your equipment and the necessary records.

What is the legal requirement?

Employers must undertake a Fire Risk Assessment. A designated member of staff responsible for Health & Safety is accountable for the servicing of both fire extinguishers and alarms.

Employers are also required to ensure that, where fitted, any fire protection equipment is maintained to the relevant standards BS 5306-8: 2012 & BS 5306-3:2017, and records kept.

Who does it apply to?

General Installations, Buildings Open to the Public & Special Installations.
