Does anybody know of a Life-line agent in Lincolnshire where I can get a 2.25L Zero 2000 fire extinguisher refilled? Approximate cost?

Cheers in advance

Mike

I think you have to send them back to Lifeline. I phoned a few weeks ago and they want £30ish to do my 4ltr manual. The dear part is sending it at around £15 each way.

They can usually be done by any local firm that can refill household/offic type extinguishers. I've got a place local to me that always does mine, only charge £10 as well thumbup

The law is changing soon that will mean you cant refill, recertify the system if you let it lapse past it's expiry date by more than 1 month. There will also be a 10 year limit on the life of the bottle.

The problem with that is gettig an FIA sticker to say it's been done.

Your MSA scrutineer will supply a sticker if required smile

Graham, I have 4ltr Fire Marshal mechanical but you seem to have 4 prices on your website and I can't make out which I should be looking at. How much, do you do the correct labels and the main thing is how long to do it as I have a race in 2 weeks and I'm going to Spa 2 weeks after that.

Really? I thought any old service sticker is fine.

Could well be, Ijust looked at mine and it only seems to have an ordinary sticker on it.
Of course if you are only doing MSA National stuff you only need to have the gauge in the green.

I took my SPA bottle to a local extinguisher sales/service centre drained it refilled it cost around £9.
In the past i have always taken them back to either SPA or Lifeline to be serviced but the car i bought last year had a sticker from a random extinguisher firm had no problems at scrutineering.

Graham at Lanan racing came through for me this week. I sent the extinguisher on Tuesday and it was back with me on Friday morning and all at a good price.
Many thanks and the car is now ready for Spa in 10 days. smile
