How Much To Recharge A Co2 Fire Extinguisher?

[Rob5]

I have been pricing up all the items to set up a pressurized Co2 system for my 200 litre tank.

Does anyone know the rough cost of getting a 2Kg fire extinguisher re-filled so I can include the price in my calculations

Many thanks

I think 5kg is approx £15 and 2kg is approx £10 depending where you go.
And I think your find most places replace your FE for a full one rather than refill on the spot

What? Thats crazy. You could buy a new 2kg for £24. My local does 5kg for £15. Think you need to shop around zik

I got quoted £35 for a 2kg, so i spent £50 on a 5kg new one off the net.
