Default Re-testing c02 cylinders

I had my calcium reactor on sale here and realized that my cylinder has expired. I was hoping to get it re-tested but have no idea where to take it. is there anywhere near Surrey, BC? If not, anywhere in the Lower Mainland that you guys know of?

Thanks

You might try Royal City Fire Supply in New Westminster.

Call them.

Any fire extinguisher supply store should be able to set you up or at least direct you to a place it can have its hydrostat certification done. They need it every 5 years. As long as they pass the test they're good to go.

The fire supply place in abby is $30. Should be somewhere around there.

Try oxypro or praxair. I think they have locations all over. Think.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
