How often should a CO2 system be inspected?

A CO2 fire suppression system should be inspected every month to ensure that it is functioning correctly and reliably. Monthly inspections are crucial because they allow for the identification of any potential issues, such as leaks or pressure loss, that could affect the system’s performance in an emergency. Regular checks help maintain the system's readiness and compliance with safety regulations. Additionally, these inspections can include testing components and verifying that the system performs as intended, further ensuring safety in environments where CO2 suppression systems are used, such as in kitchens or industrial applications.

Other inspection frequencies, such as annually or quarterly, may not provide timely detection of issues that could arise more frequently, potentially compromising the effectiveness of the system when it’s needed most.
