From ABC to Purple K and More
From commercial kitchens and electrical facilities to gas stations and office complexes, each fire extinguisher serves a unique purpose for your location. Our installation pros are certified and experienced to give you the right system and will provide the necessary maintenance to ensure you’re up to code. We work with Buckeye, Prochem, Pyrotex and Victory extinguishers.
We’ll evaluate your business and determine the types of fires likely to occur as well as a strategic location for placing your fire extinguishers. We’ll provide you with an estimate and do the installation. The law requires that your fire extinguishers remain operational so although they may not need servicing, they do have to be maintained. We’ll set you up on an annual maintenance schedule so your units are ready at all times.
