Fire Extinguisher Service and Maintenance
While it may feel like your fire extinguisher is just one more piece of the décor, it’s a valuable tool for any kitchen, restaurant, or food service business! A charged and easily accessible fire extinguisher is the best way to fight a grease, electrical, or any other type of fire anywhere on your property. This small piece of equipment can stop a major issue from getting out of hand!
Rather than buy a new fire extinguisher every year, get in touch with Berkley Fire Protection & Hood Cleaning! Our team is ready to make sure all of your fire extinguishers are up to code and protecting your business the way it should.
Fire Extinguisher Services
In addition to being a great way to help prevent the spread of a fire, California code also requires an extinguisher to be placed in all commercial businesses. These businesses must be inspected in order to comply with the code and all that inspection must be done by a licensed company.
Berkley Fire Protection & Hood Cleaning has been in this industry and following along with the California codes for years and we’re ready to help you remain in compliance. No matter what or where you need to put your fire extinguishers, we’ve got ones that will comply with the code and the space.
The first thing our team does when we need to help you make a decision about your fire extinguishers is get a free estimate finished at your place of business. This helps you budget appropriately and ensures that there are no surprises later on!
