Keeping your fire extinguishers in proper working condition is not just a safety measure, it is a legal requirement. Regular servicing and maintenance ensure that your equipment performs reliably during emergencies and complies with Singapore fire safety regulations. Fire extinguishers work best as part of a complete fire protection strategy. Pair them with a properly maintained Fire Alarm System for full building coverage.
At Kimty, we provide professional fire extinguisher services and maintenance solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial properties. Our services are carried out by trained and certified technicians, ensuring every unit meets required safety standards.
All fire extinguishers must be serviced by an approved and qualified workshop. According to Singapore fire safety regulations, extinguishers should be inspected, maintained, and certified annually. Fire extinguishers work best as part of a complete fire protection strategy. Pair them with a properly maintained fire alarm system for full building coverage.
Each serviced unit is carefully checked and issued with the required certification tag, confirming compliance and readiness for use. Our team follows strict servicing procedures to ensure reliability and safety.
Registration reference IFX/0020/90
Certificate of Conformity No. FSP-2025-1749
Yes, regular servicing is mandatory under Singapore Standard SS 578, which governs the use and maintenance of portable fire extinguishers.
For commercial properties, annual servicing is required to ensure that all installed extinguishers are functional and suitable for the specific fire risks present.
For residential properties, while enforcement may vary, it is strongly recommended to maintain fire extinguishers regularly to ensure they are ready for use when needed.
Failure to maintain fire safety equipment can lead to penalties and increased risk during emergencies.
Annual servicing by an approved workshop is only half of what SS 578 requires. Under clause 10.2.1 the owner or occupant must also inspect every extinguisher at least once a month. That inspection covers seven points:
Responsibility for these monthly checks sits with the owner or occupant, not with the servicing contractor. Keeping a dated record of them is what demonstrates compliance if the premises is inspected
Servicing restores an extinguisher to working order. Replacement is required when servicing can no longer do so. Arrange replacement if any of the following applies:
Ignoring these signs can lead to equipment failure during emergencies.
Routine maintenance plays a critical role in ensuring fire safety and compliance.
Regular servicing helps to:
Ensure Functionality
Every unit is checked to confirm it will operate correctly during an emergency.
Extend Equipment Lifespan
Proper maintenance reduces wear and prolongs usability, saving replacement costs.
Maintain Compliance
Adhering to servicing schedules ensures compliance with Singapore safety standards and regulations.
Enhance Safety
Well-maintained extinguishers provide reliable protection for occupants and property.
Under Singapore fire safety regulations, the owner or occupant of a property is responsible for ensuring that all installed fire extinguishers are properly maintained. This includes regular inspection, servicing, and ensuring that the correct type and quantity of extinguishers are installed based on the property’s fire risk.
SS 578 sets the siting and rating requirements, and getting them wrong is a common reason premises fail a fire safety inspection even when every unit has a current service tag. For a Class A hazard, no person should have to travel more than 15m to reach an extinguisher. For Class A low hazard occupancy, the minimum rating is 13A. The size, quantity and siting of units must match the occupancy hazard class of the premises, which is why an onsite survey comes before any supply quotation. KIMTY carries out that survey, recommends the type and placement for each location, and prepares the documentation for QP and FSSD submission.
Kimty offers a complete range of servicing and maintenance solutions tailored to your needs.
We conduct thorough inspections, pressure checks, and functional testing to ensure your extinguishers remain compliant and fully operational.
We refill all major types of extinguishers, ensuring they are fully charged and ready for use.
This process pressure-tests the cylinder to confirm it can still safely contain its charge. The interval depends on the extinguisher type: every 10 years for gas types, meaning carbon dioxide and clean agent units, and every 5 years for non-gas types, meaning dry powder, water and foam.
For outdated or damaged units, we provide reliable replacement options to maintain continuous fire protection.
Different types of extinguishers require different handling. Our team is trained to service dry powder, CO2, foam, and other specialised units correctly.
Escape routes are assessed at the same visit, since exit and emergency lighting in Singapore is inspected against its own schedule under SS.
You should arrange servicing immediately if you notice:
Ignoring these signs can lead to equipment failure during emergencies.
Fire extinguishers contain pressurised gas and chemical agents and must be disposed of safely. Improper disposal can be hazardous and may pose risks to untrained individuals. Kimty provides safe collection and disposal services, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and proper handling of expired or damaged units.
Kimty provides a one stop service for onsite survey, recommendation on types and locations, supply and installation, relocation, hydrostatic testing, servicing, refilling and certified of fire extinguishers to QP and FSSD submission.
Kimty’s fire extinguisher maintenance services are conducted by properly accredited and fully trained professionals, ensuring the highest standards of service each and every time.
PLS Listed ABC Dry Powder Units (1kg, 2kg, 3kg, 4kg, 6kg, 9kg)
Dry Powder Fire Extinguishers are today’s most widely used type of fire extinguishers for home and commercial environments. These multipurpose dry chemical units are effective on Class A, B, and C fires.
PLS class listed types of extinguishers come in various weight ranges. Depending on the location of placement and type of building, clients can choose from different weight variants to suit their various needs and requirements.
PLS Listed AFFF Foam & Water Units (9kg)
Foam and Water extinguishers are commonly used for fire suppression. These extinguishers are often effective for controlling and cooling fires.
However, these extinguishers are for Class A fires only – they should not be used on Class B or C. The discharge stream could spread the flammable liquid in a Class B situation or could create a shock hazard on a Class C blaze.
PLS Listed CO2 Units (2kg, 5kg)
Carbon Dioxide units extinguish fire by taking away the oxygen element and also be removing the heat with a very cold discharge. In Singapore, fire extinguisher solutions like these are commonly used in environments with electrical equipment.
Carbon dioxide can be used on Class B & C situations. They are usually ineffective on Class A.
Class F Wet Chemical
Wet Chemical is a new agent that extinguishes by removing the heat element and prevents re-ignition by creating a barrier between the oxygen and fuel elements. These units are essential for commercial kitchens and are typically maintained by a fire extinguisher servicing company in Singapore.
Wet chemical Class K extinguishers were developed for modern, high-efficiency deep fat fryers in commercial cooking operations. Some may also be used in Class A situations in commercial kitchens.
Halotron Clean Agent
Halogenated or Clean Agent extinguishers is a halocarbon based firefighting solution for handheld units. They extinguish by interrupting the chemical reaction of the blaze.
These systems are widely supplied by a trusted fire extinguisher supplier in Singapore, especially for environments requiring clean and residue-free protection. Clean agent extinguishers are primarily for Class B & C fires. Some larger clean agent extinguishers can be used on Class A, B, and C blazes.
ABC/ Monnex Powder, Water and Foam Portable Units
These Marine Equipment Directive (MED) approved portable fire extinguishers have passed stringent quality control tests to be labelled with this renowned European certification.
