Every unit tagged, scanned and reported
Every extinguisher gets its own Ironwood RFID label on the first visit, tied to its location, size, type and dates.

You get a written report you can hand to your insurer, landlord or fire inspector.

Fire extinguisher FAQ
How often do fire extinguishers need to be inspected?
NFPA 10, which Massachusetts enforces through its fire code (527 CMR 1.00), calls for a quick visual check every month and annual maintenance by a registered company. Most units also need 6-year maintenance and a hydrostatic test every 5 or 12 years depending on type.
Who can tag a fire extinguisher in Massachusetts?
Only a company holding a Certificate of Registration from the Department of Fire Services can attach a service tag. Ironwood holds CR-004847.
Do you service extinguishers you didn't sell?
Yes. We inspect and tag existing units of any brand, and quote anything that needs to be replaced.
Can you test our exit signs and emergency lights at the same time?
Yes. We start the 90-minute test when we arrive, do the extinguishers while it runs, and check every fixture before we leave.
What area do you cover?
We're based in North Andover and serve Boston, the North Shore and the Merrimack Valley. Larger accounts elsewhere in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Connecticut by arrangement.
