In short

How do I know which fire extinguishers are due for hydrostatic testing?

WebRun scans every fire extinguisher in Uptick each morning and finds those reaching their 5 or 12 year hydrostatic test interval. It updates a Google Sheets tracker and alerts your shop team in Slack with the due units by property and location, so extinguishers get pulled and tested before they fall out of compliance.

  • Extinguishers surface 60 days before hydrostatic testing is due
  • Due units are grouped by interval so batches are easy to plan
  • The shop opens Slack to a ranked test list every morning

Questions, answered

Does this message customers?

No. This workflow is internal only. WebRun updates your Google Sheets tracker and posts a Slack alert for your shop team. It never contacts a property contact about the extinguisher on its own.

How does it work out the hydrostatic interval?

It reads each extinguisher's type, manufacture date, and last hydrostatic test in Uptick, then applies the standard 5 or 12 year interval for that type to flag units coming due.

Will already-tested units keep showing up?

No. WebRun reads the live status in Uptick each morning, so any unit tested, recharged, or replaced is marked done and drops off the alert list automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
