This free monthly fire extinguisher inspection checklist is a browser-based reminder you fill in and print. It is not uploaded, it does not create a tag, and it does not decide whether a unit passed. Where OSHA 29 CFR 1910.157 applies, the monthly step is a visual inspection.
How to use the form
Use the checklist as a simple monthly reminder for portable extinguishers in the workplace. OSHA says they are to be kept fully charged and operable, and in their designated places, except while they are in use. If you want a broader overview of how the reminder works, see the fire extinguisher inspection checklist guide or the monthly inspection guide.
What each line means
Each line is a place to note what you saw during the visual check. You are looking for the extinguisher to be present, in its assigned spot, and ready for use. The form is a reminder log, not a decision tool. If you want to compare this page with the product features, visit features.
Print, do not submit
This page is for printing and keeping with your records. There is no account in v1, and nothing is uploaded from the form. If you want to join the waitlist for the app, use get the app.
Read the longer guide
For a fuller explanation of the monthly reminder and the related OSHA maintenance language, read the longer guides. OSHA also calls for an annual maintenance check, and the employer keeps that annual maintenance date record for one year after the last entry, or for the life of the shell, whichever is less. Start with the checklist guide or the monthly inspection guide.
