WLSS provides fire extinguisher testing in Adelaide and throughout South Australia.
Did you know fire extinguishers and other fire equipment must be serviced and tested regularly?
Did you know the supply, installation and servicing of fire equipment is not regulated in South Australia?
WHS laws require businesses to provide emergency equipment in the workplace. However, WLSS has found there is an alarming number of people installing, servicing and testing this life-saving equipment, who are not trained or qualified.
Why do I need my fire extinguisher tested?
The WHS Act requires workplaces to have fire protection and firefighting equipment. This equipment needs to be suitable for the hazards in your workplace. Also, it needs to be properly:
- Installed;
- Tested; and
- Maintained
In addition, businesses must keep records of the testing results.
What type of fire extinguishers do I need in my workplace?
The type of fire-fighting equipment will depend on the hazards in your workplace. WLSS can visit your workplace and assess your fuel loads and hazards. We will then determine the most suitable fire-fighting equipment specific for your workplace.
