All fire extinguishers should be installed, inspected and maintained in
accordance with the National Fire Protection Association standard titled
"Portable Fire Extinguishers", NFPA-10 and the requirements of local
authorities having jurisdiction.
When maintenance is indicated it should be performed by trained
persons having proper equipment. Fire extinguishers are pressure
vessels and must be treated with respect and handled with care. They
are mechanical devices and require periodic maintenance to be sure that
they are ready to operate properly and safely. Amerex strongly
recommends that the maintenance of portable fire extinguishers be done
by a trained professional – your local authorized Amerex Distributor.
Amerex Corporation makes original factory parts available to insure
proper maintenance – USE OF SUBSTITUTE PARTS RELEASES
AMEREX OF ITS WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS. Amerex parts have
machined surfaces and threads that are manufactured to exacting
tolerances. O-rings, hoses, nozzles, and all metal parts meet precise
specifications and are subjected to multiple in-house inspections and
tests for acceptability. There are substitute parts available that may be
incorrectly labeled as UL component parts, some are advertised as
Amerex type. None of these meet UL requirements and all of them void
the Amerex extinguisher warranty and UL listing. DO NOT
SUBSTITUTE.
RECHARGE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS IMMEDIATELY AFTER ANY USE
