At Integrity Fire, we provide NFPA 10 -compliant fire extinguisher inspections across Colorado, helping you maintain compliance, protect lives, and reduce the risk of property damage. Whether you manage a multi-family property, healthcare facility, school, or government building, our certified technicians ensure your extinguishers are ready when it matters most.
Our licensed inspectors conduct annual portable fire extinguisher inspections following NFPA 10 standards and OSHA regulations. Every inspection includes:
Visual inspection of the unit’s body, hose, and discharge mechanism
Pressure gauge check and verification of charge status
Weight verification and inspection tag review
Assessment for corrosion, damage, or signs of tampering
Evaluation of extinguisher placement per code requirements
We’ll also indicate on your inspection tag if your extinguisher is due for six-year maintenance or a hydrostatic test, so there are no surprises during compliance audits.
To stay compliant with NFPA 10 and OSHA fire safety codes, here’s what building owners and facility managers need to know:
Annual inspections are required for all portable extinguishers
Six-year maintenance is required for most common extinguisher types
Hydrostatic testing is performed every 12 years (or every 5 years for specialized units)
Specialized extinguishers (e.g., Halotron, kitchen-type) require service every 5 years, including a hydro test
These requirements apply across all industries—including property management companies, healthcare providers, schools, and commercial tenants.
We offer fire extinguisher inspection services throughout the Denver Metro Area, the Colorado Front Range, and Southern Colorado. Whether you’re a facility manager searching for fire extinguisher inspections near me or a safety director needing OSHA-compliant extinguisher service, our team delivers professional support and timely reporting.
Failing to conduct regular fire extinguisher inspections can result in:
Increased liability in fire-related incidents
Fines for non-compliance with local, state, and federal codes
Insurance issues due to expired or uninspected extinguishers
Reduced response effectiveness during a fire emergency
By partnering with Integrity Fire, you gain peace of mind knowing your life safety equipment is inspected by experts and documented to code.
How often do fire extinguishers need to be inspected in Colorado?
Every 12 months, according to NFPA 10. Integrity Fire offers annual fire extinguisher inspections to keep you compliant.
What’s the difference between a six-year maintenance and a hydrostatic test?
The six-year maintenance involves internal examination and recharge. Hydrostatic testing is a pressure test to ensure the cylinder’s integrity.
Do I need to be present during the inspection?
No, but we recommend access is coordinated in advance—especially for extinguishers in locked or high-traffic areas.

This inspection is a visual inspection of all components of a fire extinguisher unit. We look for previous service dates, gauge pressure, condition of body/damage, obstructions, and weight. We verify if the unit requires service.
