Simple, Centralized Reporting
Why Manual Fire Extinguisher Inspections Create Risk
NFPA 10 requires every portable fire extinguisher to be inspected and documented every 30 days. In hospitals, campuses, and large facilities, that can mean thousands of repetitive inspections each month. Manual processes are labor-heavy, inconsistent, and easy to get wrong, especially across multiple buildings.
Wasted labor hours
Walking buildings, opening cabinets, checking gauges, and signing tags consumes skilled labor that could be spent on maintenance and repairs.
Compliance risks
Missing tags, illegible initials, or incomplete logs create preventable compliance issues during AHJ and accreditor surveys.
Late discovery of problems
Obstructed, relocated, or depressurized extinguishers are often found weeks after the issue occurs, not when it happens.
24/7 Monitoring
Continuous Compliance Without Wasted Time
Hexmodal smart fire extinguisher monitors automate the NFPA 10 monthly inspection process. Battery-powered sensors continuously verify extinguisher status and generate compliant inspection records automatically. Each inspection includes pressure status, weight verification, obstruction detection, tamper detection, and a photo of the gauge, all stored digitally.
No monthly walk-downs
Inspections run automatically without staff checking every extinguisher.
Immediate issue alerts
Obstructions, tampering, pressure loss, or relocation trigger alerts as they happen.
Survey-ready documentation
Monthly inspection reports are generated automatically in an AHJ-accepted format.
