Fire Extinguisher Service Tampa

Annual fire extinguisher inspection is required by Florida law for every commercial building — and missing or outdated tags are one of the most common reasons Tampa businesses fail fire marshal inspections. At $8 to $15 per unit depending on quantity, our walk-in inspection service is the most cost-effective way to stay compliant in the Tampa Bay area.

We regularly inspect extinguishers for:

  • Restaurants, food trucks, and commercial kitchens throughout Ybor City, South Tampa, and Channelside
  • Warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial facilities in East Tampa and Port Tampa
  • Apartment complexes, offices, and hospitals across Westshore and New Tampa
  • Construction sites, job sites, and temporary structures throughout Hillsborough County
  • Yachts and marine vessels docked at Tampa marinas

Our inspection process covers pressure levels, physical condition, tamper seal integrity, hose and nozzle examination, label legibility, mounting height verification, and certification tagging — all in compliance with NFPA 10. Drive across the Howard Frankland Bridge to our St. Petersburg facility and we’ll have your extinguishers inspected, tagged, and certified the same day.

A discharged or low-pressure extinguisher is a liability — and replacing it when a recharge would do is an unnecessary expense. At Serviced Fire Equipment recharging starts at just $25 for a 2.5 lb ABC unit — a fraction of the cost of a new extinguisher and far less than what a mobile service company charges once you add their $100+ service call fee.

We recharge all common extinguisher types for Tampa businesses including:

  • ABC, BC, and PK dry chemical — 2.5 lb, 5 lb, 10 lb, and 20 lb units
  • Class K wet chemical — required for Tampa restaurants and commercial kitchens
  • CO₂ extinguishers — 5 lb through 20 lb units, larger cylinders charged at $1.75 per lb
  • Clean agent systems — Halon 1211, 1301, Cleanguard, Halotron, and Novec
  • Pressurized water and water mist extinguishers
  • Ansul Red Line suppression system cylinders

Don’t want to wait? We’ll swap your discharged unit out on the spot with one of similar condition that fits the same bracket — fully charged, tagged, and certified. You’re back on the road in 5 minutes. Drive across the Howard Frankland, drop off your units, and leave with everything compliant in one visit. See our full recharge pricing table.

Co2 Beverage Cylinder refill rechage

Tampa restaurants, bars, breweries, and event operators rely on us for fast CO₂ cylinder refills at our St. Petersburg facility — just 30 minutes across the Howard Frankland Bridge. We weigh every fill, verify to manufacturer specs, and leak test before it leaves our facility.

We refill all common CO₂ cylinder types including:

  • Restaurant and bar CO₂ tanks — soda systems, beer lines, and draught dispensing throughout Ybor City, South Tampa, and downtown
  • Beverage CO₂ tanks — kegerators, coffee systems, and carbonation equipment
  • Gasparilla and event fill stations — bulk CO₂ for Tampa’s festivals and outdoor events
  • Fire extinguisher CO₂ cylinders — 5 lb through 20 lb units, larger cylinders at $1.75 per lb
  • Welding and industrial CO₂ tanks — large commercial cylinders for fabrication and manufacturing
  • Marine CO₂ systems — for vessels docked at Tampa Bay marinas

Most refills are completed the same day. If your cylinder is past its hydrostatic testing date we’ll let you know upfront — our DOT-certified hydrostatic testing facility can handle it in the same visit so you’re never making extra trips. See our full CO₂ refill service page for details.

If you’re operating an auto body shop or refinishing facility in Tampa, your paint booth is required to have a code-compliant fire suppression system — and keeping it serviced and certified is a non-negotiable compliance requirement.

At Serviced Fire Equipment we supply and service paint booth fire suppression systems for Tampa area auto body shops, refinishing operations, and industrial facilities. We carry:

  • Pre-engineered paint booth fire suppression systems ready for installation
  • Cylinder refills and recharge for existing systems
  • Nozzles, fusible links, and pipe kits
  • Control heads and detection hardware
  • Refurbishment and recharge for aging or expired systems

Everything ships directly to your Tampa facility or can be picked up at our St. Petersburg location. Call (813) 228-8283 to discuss your paint booth system requirements.

Fire Suppression Systems for Tampa Restaurants and Industrial Facilities

From Ybor City restaurants to Tampa industrial facilities, code-compliant fire suppression systems are a requirement — and keeping them serviced, recharged, and certified is an ongoing obligation that most businesses can’t afford to get wrong.

We supply parts and pre-filled systems for:

  • Kitchen hood suppression systems — wet chemical systems for Tampa restaurants, food trucks, and commercial kitchens. Brands include Ansul, Amerex, Pyro-Chem, Range Guard, Protex, and Kidde
  • Industrial dry chemical systems — for manufacturing, warehousing, and heavy equipment operations
  • Clean agent systems — Halotron, FM200, Halon, and Novec for server rooms, medical facilities, and sensitive electronics
  • Paint booth suppression systems — pre-engineered systems for auto body shops and refinishing facilities
  • Marine fire suppression systems — Fireboy, Sea-Fire, and Kidde systems for vessels docked at Tampa Bay marinas

We offer cylinder exchange, recharge, hydrostatic testing, and certified tagging — all in-house. Systems can be picked up at our St. Petersburg facility or shipped directly to your Tampa job site. Call (813) 228-8283 for availability and pricing.

High-Pressure Hydrostatic Testing for Tampa Businesses

Serviced Fire Equipment is one of the few facilities in the Tampa Bay area certified by the Department of Transportation to perform high-pressure hydrostatic testing — and we do everything in-house with no outsourcing and no delays.

If your cylinders are past their testing date and you can no longer get them filled, bring them to us. We use water jacket testing for accuracy and compliance, stamping each cylinder with a new requalification date and full documentation.

We test all common cylinder types including:

  • CO₂ cylinders — fire extinguishers, beverage tanks, and industrial cylinders
  • SCBA bottles — for Tampa fire departments, industrial safety teams, and dive operations
  • Fire suppression system tanks — kitchen hood, clean agent, and paint booth cylinders
  • Nitrogen, argon, and compressed gas cylinders — industrial and welding applications
  • Marine fire system cylinders — for vessels docked at Tampa Bay marinas

Tampa fire departments and industrial operators regularly ship or drop off cylinders for testing. For large quantities we can arrange freight pickup — call (813) 228-8283 to discuss logistics. Learn more about our hydrostatic testing services.

All cabinets are code-compliant and sized to fit standard commercial extinguishers. Tampa contractors can pick up at our St. Petersburg facility or we can ship directly to your job site.
