Fire Extinguisher Inspection by Certified Technicians
Annual and monthly fire extinguisher inspections performed to NFPA 10 standards by FERL-licensed technicians. Full service documentation for every unit, every visit — keeping your facility audit-ready across Northern Alberta.
Inspection Service Built for Northern Alberta Industrial Sites
Industrial operations across Northern Alberta — oil sands, pipelines, construction camps, and contractor fleets — face inspection requirements from regulators, insurance carriers, and Tier 1 clients simultaneously. A missing inspection tag or an expired service record can shut down a site visit or trigger a compliance finding. We understand what your safety files need to look like and we build our documentation accordingly.
A fire extinguisher that has not been properly inspected is not a compliant fire extinguisher — regardless of whether it was purchased new last year. NFPA 10 requires both a monthly visual inspection and a full annual maintenance inspection by a qualified technician. Inuksuk Fire and Safety Inc. provides both, backed by written records that stand up to any audit.
Our lead technician Richard Needham holds a current Fire Extinguisher Recharge Licence (FERL) from Vermilion Fire College — the certification required under Alberta's Safety Codes Act to perform and sign off on annual fire extinguisher maintenance. Every inspection we complete is documented, dated, and tagged in compliance with NFPA 10 Section 7.
