	Fire fighting is a difficult job, and involves taking a lot of real time risks that every fire fighter will attest to. The reality, though, is that not everyone can be a fire fighter, however, if preliminary fire fighting equipment is installed in a home or office, this can be a lifesaver in times of accidental fire outbreaks. These products protect people and property during fire mishaps; and when duly installed, people feel safer in their homes and workplaces. Therefore, fire fighting equipment is immensely important, and is absolutely necessary for the safekeeping of home and office dwellers by ensuring optimal fire protection. However, only installation of fire equipment is not enough to ensure fire safety. Their regular inspection and maintenance also plays a crucial role in ensuring prolonged fire safety and prevention of any accidents that can cause extensive damage to life or property. Various Fire Equipment To Maintain: Any fire equipment installed in a home needs to be fully functional and must be capable of providing safety for a long duration of time with relatively good maintenance. Maintenance is the only way to ensure optimal functionality of these commodities; and for that purpose, frequent inspections including monthly and quarterly fire safety inspections are absolutely necessary. Ask fire suppliers and servicing houses for the contacts of experts and professionals who can visit your home or office at regular time intervals to inspect and keep an eye on the equipment. The fire equipment that is usually checked by professionals include: • Fire alarms • Fire signs • Sprinkler machines • Fire extinguishers • Emergency lighting • Dry, aerosol or foam extinguishers • Fire hydrants • Smoke control system • Fire doors Various above-mentioned items can be purchased from various fire fighting equipment suppliers. The most important step is to choose a reliable supplier, and to purchase best quality goods, rather than just hunting for cheap options. Fire safety is a serious issue and hence no compromise on quality of objects should be made. Extend your budget, if needed, however, this can be avoided if you do ample market research, since there are many good fire equipment suppliers who offer exciting deals on high standard products that are known to be the best in the market. Subscribing to fire fighting equipment inspection plan: Any standard maintenance routine involves 24/7 support for fire equipment servicing. Any maintenance plan provided by a fire servicing professional must include inspection of fire safety objects, timely detection of worn out parts and their immediate replacements, and disposal of faulty parts. A comprehensive plan covers all charges including experts’ attendance, replacement of parts, and so on. Minor and major replacements must be covered under a comprehensive maintenance plan. There are a number of service providers who offer professional fire equipment maintenance services. Subscribing to a useful monthly or quarterly plan is a good way to ensure fire safety of your building. Fire extinguisher maintenance services: Probably the most important equipment in your fire fighting arsenal is the fire extinguisher which comes in many types, such as CO2 extinguisher, foam based fire extinguisher, and gaseous and liquid extinguishers. Since it is a key fire fighting equipment it should be checked and maintained regularly to ensure optimal operation of such equipment. Use the services of a professional to check its pressure limits, any signs of corrosion or damages, and need for refill or replacement to ensure that these devices are in working condition and will be able to deliver the best performance when the need arises and not fail at the last moment. Maintenance professionals often keep a track record of their services, and such records must be examined before you decide to sign up with anyone, no matter how reputed they may appear at first glance. There should be no compromise to fire safety and fire fighting equipment even if it is expensive.
