ACE Fire Protection introduces fire extinguisher audits for NYC compliance planning

ACE Fire Protection has launched a pre-violation fire extinguisher audit service in New York City for building owners and retail tenants preparing for FDNY and insurance compliance reviews.

Brooklyn, United States, June 18, 2026 — BROOKLYN, NY — ACE Fire Protection announced the launch of a pre-violation fire extinguisher audit service for New York City building owners and retail tenants seeking to identify compliance issues before Fire Department of the City of New York, or FDNY, inspections and insurance reviews. The service is being introduced for properties managing lease renewals, business openings, renovations, and occupancy changes, when fire extinguisher placement, tagging, and documentation are often reviewed. The company said the offering is intended to help clients address deficiencies before they become formal violations or delay approvals.

The new audit service focuses on site-level review of fire extinguisher condition, accessibility, mounting, signage, inspection tags, and records aligned with local codes and carrier expectations. ACE Fire Protection said the review can also identify whether extinguisher types align with the hazards present in retail, office, mixed-use, and commercial spaces. In New York City, 3 RCNY Section 115-02 requires monthly checks and annual maintenance for portable fire extinguishers in many commercial settings.

According to the National Fire Protection Association, portable extinguishers are a standard element of building fire protection programs, but their effectiveness depends on correct selection, placement, inspection, and maintenance. ACE Fire Protection said its new process is designed for clients who want a documented assessment before a scheduled inspection, a store opening, or a change in tenancy triggers additional scrutiny. The company added that the audits may be used as a planning step before corrective service or replacement work is scheduled.

“Many property owners and tenants do not discover a fire extinguisher issue until an inspector, insurer, or landlord representative points it out,” said Jack Shammah, Owner of ACE Fire Protection. “This audit is meant to give them a clearer picture of what is on site and what may need attention before a deadline affects operations.”

The company said the audits are available across the five boroughs and can be coordinated for single locations or multi-property portfolios. Findings may include missing units, expired tags, obstructed access, incorrect extinguisher classes for the occupancy, or records gaps that complicate insurance renewals. For retail tenants, the service is also positioned for pre-opening reviews and fit-out periods, when compliance items are often handled alongside construction closeout and occupancy preparation.
