A fire suppression system is an integral part of any fire protection infrastructure. ‘Fire suppression’ is a collective term for any engineering group of units that are designed to put out a fire. This can be achieved by applying an extinguishing substance such as water, foam or chemical compounds. Giving any company within retail, restaurant, hotel, religious, and government, medical, residential and service industry peace of mind to employees, occupants and tenants alike.
Fire Extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are one of the most common methods of protecting lives and property in the event of a fire. However, not all fire extinguishers are created equal. CB & K Fire sells and services the highest quality fire extinguishers and equipment available today.

Foam
We keep your fire extinguishers serviced and ready when you need them. We perform the routine inspection, testing, and maintenance. All of our portable extinguisher technicians are trained, tested, and licensed to service and recharge portables.
Annual Inspections – The NFPA 10 and your local jurisdiction require inspections of all fire extinguishers on an annual basis. Customers should perform a visual inspection of each extinguisher at least monthly.
6-Year Maintenance – The extinguisher is broken down and checked for damage. The “O” ring and gaskets are replaced and the extinguisher is recharged.
Hydro Test – Every 12 years the extinguisher is broken down and emptied. The cylinder is tested for defects. If the cylinder passes it is recharged and put back in service. (Required every 5 years for CO2, Water, and K Class.)
