Fire Extinguisher Violation Removal in New York City
FDNY & ECB Compliance Correction Services
Fire extinguisher violations issued by the FDNY or ECB are enforcement actions—not warnings. These violations typically indicate non-compliance discovered during inspection, documentation review, or complaint-based audits. County Fire Inc provides fire extinguisher violation removal services designed to correct deficiencies, prepare buildings for re-inspection, and close violations efficiently.
Our process focuses on how FDNY enforces compliance, not generic interpretations of fire code.

Why Fire Extinguisher Violations Are Issued
FDNY fire extinguisher violations are commonly issued for:
- Missing or expired inspection tags
- Improper extinguisher type for the hazard
- Low pressure or discharged units
- Obstructed or inaccessible extinguishers
- Overdue maintenance or hydrostatic testing
- Use of obsolete or condemned extinguishers
- Incomplete or incorrect service documentation
Many violations are not caused by neglect—but by misunderstanding inspection vs maintenance requirements or relying on incomplete service records.
NYC Codes & Enforcement Standards Behind Violations
Fire extinguisher violations in NYC are enforced under:
- NYC Fire Code (FC Chapter 9)
- 3 RCNY §906
- NFPA 10
- FDNY inspection and enforcement protocols
- ECB adjudication procedures
Violations may escalate if not corrected promptly, leading to:
- Additional fines
- Failed re-inspections
- Insurance compliance issues
- Operational delays
County Fire structures corrective actions around what FDNY inspectors look for during re-inspection, not just initial compliance.
Common Mistakes That Delay Violation Closure
Based on field experience, violation resolution is often delayed due to:
- Partial corrective work without documentation
- Incorrect service tags
- Failure to address maintenance interval violations
- Re-inspection requested before full compliance
- Use of non-FDNY-compliant service providers
County Fire avoids these delays by handling both corrective work and compliance documentation as a single process.

Violation Removal vs Inspection or Maintenance
- Inspection identifies compliance status
- Maintenance restores compliance due to service intervals or deficiencies
- Violation removal addresses active enforcement actions
Once a violation is issued, inspection alone is insufficient. Corrective service and documentation must directly address the cited violation.
County Fire ensures corrective actions are aligned with the violation notice, reducing the risk of failed re-inspection.
