Sweden: fire safety

“Law” is a binding rule. “Official guidance” is not law, but inspectors expect it. “Chef Hygiene default” is a value the app checks against where no rule gives a number.

• Official guidanceFire extinguishers: a technician service every year, with an overhaul after 5 years (water, foam) or 10 years (powder, CO2). The owner also looks at them every 1 to 3 months (standard SS 3656, via MCF).
• LawKitchen hood ducts (imkanaler): a fire-safety control every 2 years, done by the municipality’s chimney sweep (MSBFS 2014:6). Cleaning follows the municipality’s schedule (LSO 3 kap. 4 §).
• Official guidanceGas: a leak test before first use and again when needed (MSBFS 2020:1). Advice is a check every 2 years, and rubber or plastic hoses every year.
• LawElectrics: the holder needs its own documented, risk-based routine. There is no fixed interval (Elsäkerhetslag; ELSÄK-FS 2022:3).
