How often do I have to do maintenance & retreading on my fire extinguishers?
The fire extinguisher must be maintained – refilled at least once a year by a recognized company.
The owner is obliged to make a visual inspection 3 times a year and to check the pressure gauge indicator if it is in the green area.
If this is not the case then call the company where you are working to fix the problem.
