Queens buildings often involve larger footprints and multiple hazard areas, requiring careful extinguisher distribution and recordkeeping.

Based on field experience, common Queens compliance issues include:

• Insufficient extinguisher coverage in large spaces
• Incorrect extinguisher types for industrial or storage hazards
• Overdue six-year or hydrostatic testing
• Missing inspection tags in secondary areas
• Failure to update records after maintenance or replacement

Our inspections and maintenance services are designed to correct these issues before FDNY enforcement occurs.

Compared to other boroughs, Queens inspections often involve:

• Larger properties with multiple inspection zones
• Increased scrutiny of storage and mechanical spaces
• Greater emphasis on extinguisher placement across expansive floor areas
• Follow-up inspections for documentation deficiencies

County Fire’s Queens service model reflects these conditions, helping properties remain compliant between inspections.

FDNY inspections in Queens frequently focus on:

• Correct extinguisher type for each occupancy and hazard
• Adequate coverage across larger floor areas and multiple zones
• Proper placement in storage rooms, mechanical spaces, and corridors
• Valid inspection and maintenance tags
• Compliance with NFPA 10 service intervals

Queens properties often fail inspections not due to missing equipment, but because extinguishers are improperly distributed or documentation is incomplete. County Fire addresses these issues proactively.
