Emergency Exit Light Testing

Emergency Exit Light Testing is carried out in accordance with the standard AS/NZS 2293.2:2019, and must be completed every 6 months.

In case of an emergency or power outage in your business, school, office, or apartment complex, it is crucial that the exit route is clearly marked.

Fire Extinguisher Testing

The testing of all fire safety equipment is crucial to ensure its accessibility and effectiveness in the event of a fire in your home or workplace.

Testing of Fire Extinguishers is carried out in accordance with the standard NZS 4503:2005 - Hand Operated Fire-Fighting Equipment and must be completed every 6 months to ensure it is fully functional when needed to prevent the loss of property, equipment & lives.

During our test, we will visually inspect the extinguisher to assess its accessibility, mounted height, mounting brackets, safety pins, labels, security tie, and pressure gauge readings. After completing the inspection, we will tag the extinguisher with a reference number that indicates the service or inspection that was performed. Additionally, we will record our assessment in our software, allowing us to easily refer back to it every 6 months when conducting tests.

Fire Blanket Testing

Testing of Fire Blankets is carried out in accordance with the standard NZS 4503:2005 - Hand Operated Fire-Fighting Equipment, and must be completed every 6 months.

After the inspection, we will generate a comprehensive report for each tested blanket. The report will include information such as the blanket's location, whether it passed or failed the test, and any suggested actions that need to be taken.

Microwave Leakage Testing

Microwave Leakage Testing is carried out in accordance with the standard AS/NZS 60335.2.25:2020, and must be completed every 12 months.

All microwaves leak radiation. However, the purpose of the test is to determine the amount of radiation being leaked while it is in use. It is common for microwaves to deteriorate over time, which in turn increases the potential health risks for users.
