Annual Inspection Programs for NYC Property Managers

Managing fire extinguisher inspections across multiple buildings — or even a single large property — can be a logistical headache. Tracking which units were last inspected, coordinating technician visits, ensuring every floor is covered, and keeping documentation organized for the fire marshal takes real time and attention. Miss an extinguisher, and you risk a $1,000 to $5,000 FDNY violation. Miss a building, and the fines multiply.

Our annual inspection program eliminates the complexity. You schedule once, and we handle everything from that point forward. Our team visits your building on the agreed date, inspects every extinguisher on every floor, tags each passing unit, flags and corrects any deficiencies, and delivers a complete digital report the same day. The following year, we send an automated reminder 30 days before your inspection is due, confirm the date, and repeat the process. You never have to track a single expiration date.

For property managers overseeing portfolios of 5, 10, or 50+ buildings, we offer coordinated scheduling across your entire portfolio. One point of contact manages all locations. Billing is centralized. Reports are consistent across every property so you can compare compliance status at a glance. Your portfolio stays uniformly compliant without you chasing individual building supers for inspection dates.

Every annual inspection follows NFPA 10 requirements to the letter. Our technicians verify each extinguisher is the correct type for its location, check that pressure gauges are in the green zone, inspect hoses and nozzles for cracks or blockages, confirm tamper seals and pull pins are intact, examine the cylinder for dents, corrosion, or damage, verify proper mounting height and accessibility, and replace the inspection tag with current documentation. Any unit that fails is flagged for immediate servicing, recharging, or replacement — and we handle that work too.
