✅ Monthly Visual Inspection Points

SANS 1475-1 requires visual checks every 30 days. Here's what to look for:

  • ✅ Cylinder pressure needle in green zone
  • ✅ Pin and tamper seal intact
  • ✅ Clear access — not blocked by boxes or pallets
  • ✅ Wall bracket or cabinet secure

🧯 Condition and Cleanliness

Wipe down extinguishers monthly. Dust or grease buildup is considered non-compliant during audits.

🏷️ Tags and Markings

Ensure:

  • Tag shows correct last service date
  • Serial/QR code is legible
  • COC sticker (if available) is not faded

Abakhisa clients on Nova Shield and up receive monthly inspections as an optional add-on.
