The fire extinguisher inspection tag is the one piece of paper an auditor, a fire officer and the building manager all look at. A clear, printed tag with your company's name also brings you the next refill job. Download the Word template below and print four per A4 sheet.
Fire extinguisher inspection tag: front
- Your company name, phone and AMC number
- Cylinder serial number, type (ABC, CO2, water, foam, clean agent), capacity
- Site and location code
- Date of refill and next refill due
- Date of pressure test and next test due
Back: inspection grid
- Twelve boxes (one per month): date and initials
- Checks: gauge, pin and seal, hose, body, access
- Remarks line
Tips that save callbacks
- Write dates in DD-MM-YYYY to avoid confusion.
- Use a cable tie, not string. Tags tied with string vanish.
- Match the serial number to your register on every visit.
- Print your phone number large: the tag is your advertisement at the site.
Tag and register together
The tag is for people at the site; the record is for you. Keep both in step with the fire extinguisher inspection checklist. ServicePilot holds each site's equipment and its dates and creates the next AMC visit, so the tag and the record agree. Intervals follow IS 2190, the manufacturer and your local fire authority.
