Fire Extinguisher Recharge Replacement & Disposal NYC

Keeping your business fire-ready means more than just having extinguishers on the wall — it means ensuring they work when it counts. At Master Fire, we specialize in comprehensive fire extinguisher recharge, replacement, and disposal services throughout NYC. Whether you operate a restaurant, office, warehouse, or retail store, we’ll make sure your extinguishers meet code and function properly when needed. Recharging Fire Extinguishers: When and Why Fire extinguishers must be recharged after every use, even if they’ve only been partially discharged. Pressure loss, even a small amount, can affect performance. Additionally, extinguishers should be recharged periodically based on the manufacturer’s schedule or if they show signs of damage, corrosion, or a low-pressure gauge reading. Our S17-certified field techs can inspect, depressurize, refill, and re-pressurize most major extinguisher types on-site or at our facility — all while maintaining FDNY compliance.

Replacement Services: Knowing When to Swap Units Not all extinguishers can or should be recharged. If the canister is damaged, the unit is obsolete or expired, or the cost of service exceeds replacement value, we’ll recommend a new UL-listed extinguisher suited to your business needs. We carry ABC, CO₂, K-Class, and water-mist extinguishers, all code-compliant and tagged. Our experts will ensure the correct placement and quantity per NYC fire code, and we’ll handle the full installation and tagging process. Safe Disposal: Don’t Just Toss It Improper disposal of fire extinguishers is both dangerous and illegal. Pressurized canisters must be depressurized, drained of contents, and handled according to EPA and FDNY guidelines. At Master Fire, we offer eco-safe fire extinguisher disposal for expired or damaged units, including documentation for commercial audits or inspections. Don’t risk a fine — let us take care of it.
