Aren't ALL fire extinguishers supposed to be inspected, checked, serviced
and re-certified every once in great while, like every 10 years max ?

I we still have our original factory fire extinguisher that has thankfully
never been used can they be refilled by your local fire extinguisher
supply/service company? Anyone have any experience here? I have periodically
taken
mine out of the bracket and tapped/shaken it but doubt that it would be of
any
use in a true emergency. I like the idea of keeping everything original
though.
