Question

Accepted Answer

Typically an expiration date is the recommended date for refining of the extinguisher. One should check the pressure on the nozzle and check if the cylinder shows signs of damage or corrosion. This is usually shorter than the lifespan of the cylinder itself. The cylinder needs to go through a hydrostatic test every 5 years or so based on the manufacturer.
