Installation FAQ

What does your fire extinguisher installation service include?

Atomic’s licensed techs consider the most reasonable places to place fire extinguishers in commercial buildings. We focus on spacing between extinguishers and ways to evacuate the building. If there is a fire, we don’t want extinguishers stuck in the middle, away from the exits. 

How do you determine the correct installation height and placement for fire extinguishers?

NFPA 10 designates extinguisher requirements anywhere from 4” – 60”, depending on the extinguisher size. For example, during an emergency it can be hard to pull down a 20# fire extinguisher at 5 foot tall. We mount extinguishers at the height that is most accessible for staff, but still within the code.

What are the industry standards and guidelines you follow for fire extinguisher installations?

Atomic Fire Protection follows NFPA standards on installation and inspections. Additionally, Oklahoma requires green tags for good extinguishers, yellow tags for extinguishers with a deficiency and red tags for extinguishers that are inoperable or should be replaced.

How long does a typical fire extinguisher installation take?

Typical extinguisher installation takes a few minutes. If we are mounting it on a vehicle such as a forklift or dozer, it may take 10-15 minutes.

How many fire extinguishers do I need in my building?

The number of extinguishers depends on the size of the building and the likely hazards, as there are specific extinguishers for different hazards. Contact us for a consultation and quote!

Maintenance FAQ

What does routine fire extinguisher maintenance include?

Atomic Fire recommends that our customers check their extinguisher monthly and ensure the extinguisher has proper pressure by reading the gauge.  If any units need to be replaced, please contact us.

Stored-pressure fire extinguishers are required to be internally inspected every 6 years and hydrostatically tested every 12 years. We offer these maintenance services and provide a good loaner extinguisher in its place while our customer’s extinguisher is being tested. 

How often should fire extinguishers be serviced and maintained?

Fire extinguishers must be annually inspected by a licensed Oklahoma technician. Customers should be checking the pressure on their extinguishers monthly and signing the back of the tag.

What are the benefits of regular fire extinguisher servicing?

With regularly serviced extinguishers, you’ll be sure the extinguisher will work in the event of a fire, in the right location, and for the most likely hazards in the facility. 

Do you offer recertification services for fire extinguishers in both residential and commercial settings?

Yes, extinguisher recertification is available with our services, including annual inspections and 6 year internal / hydro testing.

What is the typical cost for fire extinguisher maintenance services?

A typical inspection is $25 for a fire extinguisher. The more extinguishers the customer has, the lower the cost per extinguisher. Also, the bigger the extinguisher, the more it costs for recharges, 6 year testing, or hydro testing.

Interested in learning more about how we can prepare your facility or commercial building?  Please contact us for personalized pricing estimates.

Can you service specialized types of extinguishers, such as dry chemical or halon models?

Yes, Atomic can service these extinguishers, which have similar maintenance schedules as regular stored-pressure extinguishers.

The k-class or any extinguisher of pressurized water, wet chemical or carbon dioxide must be internally inspected every 5 years.

Our licensed technicians are fully trained in all testing requirements and keep detailed records of each customer’s extinguishers. If an internal service is due, we ensure they bring loaner units to keep your facility protected without interruption.

Are maintenance records kept and provided for compliance and inspection purposes?

Yes – our licensed techs have access to these records to aid in effective maintenance.

Why is it important to maintain your fire extinguishers?

Staying on schedule for maintenance:

  • Validates insurance coverage & health‑department requirements (assisted‑living).
  • Confirms extinguishers protect the right hazard class after layout or process changes.
  • Avoids OSHA fines—up to $14,502 per item—for missing annual tags.

Inspections FAQ

What is involved in a comprehensive fire extinguisher inspection?

We examine the customer’s location, ensuring practical placement of extinguishers, that the hose is in good condition, that the pressure gauge is in the optimal zone, and that the extinguisher is in overall good physical condition. Then we replace the seal and recertify the extinguisher. 

How often should fire extinguishers be inspected, and what standards do you follow?

Fire extinguishers should be checked monthly by the customer and recertified annually by a licensed technician.

Who is qualified to perform an extinguisher inspection?

In Oklahoma, a licensed technician is the only person who can recertify extinguishers.

Beginning 2025, all licensed technicians are required to have ICC NAFED certification. Additionally, technicians must renew their licenses annually through the State Fire Marshal’s office and be employed by a licensed company.

What is the cost of fire extinguisher inspection services?

A typical inspection is $25 for a fire extinguisher. The more extinguishers the customer has, the lower the cost per extinguisher. For example, if a customer has 10 extinguishers, we charge $12 per extinguisher inspection.

Do you offer annual and monthly fire extinguisher inspections? How often do you recommend an inspection?

Atomic offers annual fire extinguisher inspections, but customers should check the fire extinguishers monthly.

What is hydrostatic testing, and when is it necessary for fire extinguishers?

Hydrostatic testing involves relieving the pressure of the extinguisher and conducting an internal inspection – a light is put inside the extinguisher and the tech examines the inside for any corrosion. The extinguisher is then filled with water and pressurized to the manufacturer’s recommended pressure for hydro testing, while in a closed cage. If there is any pressure drop, the extinguisher must be condemned from service and replaced.

Will I receive a detailed inspection report for compliance and record-keeping purposes?

Yes, the extinguisher itself contains the record of internal inspections and hydrotesting. At installation, we place a neck collar and inspection sticker on the extinguisher. The neck collar is of a smaller size that can only be put on with the extinguisher head off.
