Inspection & Testing Services

Fire extinguishers need to be inspected, tested, and tagged each year to ensure they’ll protect your family or co-workers in case of an emergency. Far too often, people purchase fire extinguishers and then forget to do their annual tune-up. At GryphonESP, we inspect and test our customer’s equipment to make sure it will function when it matters most.

Recharge & Refill Services

Ensure your fire extinguishers can protect you at all times. After each use, you will need to schedule fire extinguisher recharge. Whether you used the whole can or even just a tiny bit—even a few lost milliseconds of pressure or extinguishant could make or break an out-of-control flame the next time you have to use your extinguisher.

Class K wet chemical extinguishers, on the other hand, can contain much more toxic chemical components, and any direct exposure should be taken seriously.
