F.M. Fire Control is know longer in business, Gorham Fire Appliance Co. from Quincy has taken over a lot of their stops. Telephone number is (617) 472-5785, also due fire systems. I know this answer is way past question, but just a heads up.

However, the last time I looked into this I found that it was actually cheaper to just buy a new one. Stupid and wasteful, but that's what I found.

HINT: your hint was not helpful. Google is not God and loves to ignore small local businesses with esoteric specialties.

and Keane in Waltham. Keane comes out annually to my office in Boston; I don't see why they wouldn't come to a residence.

The servicing companies usually put a sticker on them.

There are no fire extinguisher companies near the center of the city. I've spent way too much mental energy looking at the tags on extinguishers.

There was one in Allston that came up in a search, but when I went there it was just an office that didn't do any service on-site. Keane in Waltham was the next-closest.

Walk over to the closest fire station and ask someone working there who'd they recommend locally. That's better then some random internet advice.

I can't remember whether it was when I lived in New York and/or Florida, but you could bring fire extinguishers to the local fire station and they'd refill them for free.

One thing's for sure: fire departments know a lot about fire extinguishers, and they're constantly needing their own extinguishers refilled. If they can't do it for you, they'll probably be able to steer you to someone who can.
