Customers ask "what is the refilling price?" on the phone, and a list lets any person in your office answer the same way. This is a format, not a market rate card: fill it from your own costs. Rates in the example are illustrative only.

Fire extinguisher refilling price list: layout

  • Type: ABC powder, CO2, water, foam, clean agent
  • Capacity: 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 9 kg and so on
  • Refill charge, hydro test charge, total with both
  • Common parts: valve, hose, gauge, pin and seal
  • Pickup and delivery charge or free above a number of cylinders
  • Date of the list and validity

How to set each rate

  1. Material: the agent per kilogram or the gas per kilogram at your purchase price.
  2. Labour: time to discharge, clean, refill, pressurise and tag.
  3. Testing: your cost per hydrostatic test, where due, and tags.
  4. Overhead and margin: a fixed share per cylinder.
  5. Round to rates your staff can remember.

Illustrative line (not a market rate)

4 kg ABC powder: powder Rs 120, labour and consumables Rs 80, overhead share Rs 50, margin Rs 60, so about Rs 310 for refilling. Your numbers will differ.

Turn the list into AMC work

A price list is for one-off calls; a society with 60 cylinders needs a schedule. Use the fire extinguisher AMC agreement format, give a refilling certificate after each job and keep every cylinder in ServicePilot with its due dates. See the refilling business guide for the economics.
