FAQ
Frequently Asked Question
How often do fire extinguishers need to be serviced in Australia?
Under AS/NZS 1851, fire extinguishers in Australian workplaces must be inspected every 6 months for a basic service check, with a comprehensive inspection required every 5 years. Some high-risk environments such as industrial facilities, warehouses, and commercial kitchens may require more frequent inspections depending on their specific risk assessment. Failing to maintain a regular service schedule can result in non-compliance penalties and, more critically, equipment failure during an emergency.
What does Test & Tag involve and is it legally required?
Test & Tag is the process of inspecting, testing, and labelling electrical equipment to ensure it is safe for use in the workplace. Under AS/NZS 3760, it is a legal requirement for most Australian workplaces, particularly in construction, manufacturing, hospitality, and hire industries. Each item is visually inspected and electrically tested using a PAT (Portable Appliance Tester), then tagged with a colour-coded label showing the test date and next due date. Our licensed technicians provide full documentation after every test and tag service.
Do you service both small businesses and large commercial sites?
Yes, A2 Safety services businesses of all sizes, from single-site small businesses and retail shops to large commercial complexes, industrial facilities, warehouses, and multi-site operations across Australia. We tailor our service schedule and compliance reporting to suit the specific needs of each client. Whether you have 5 extinguishers or 500, our team delivers the same standard of certified, thorough, and efficient service every time.
What documentation do I receive after a service?
After every service, A2 Safety provides a full compliance report detailing all equipment inspected, test results, any defects identified, remedial actions taken, and the next scheduled service date. All physical equipment is labelled with updated service tags as required by Australian standards. This documentation is essential for WHS audits, insurance purposes, and legal compliance, and is provided in both digital and printed formats upon request. We also offer reminders when your next service is due so nothing falls through the cracks.
