Extinguisher System
Portable extinguishers can put out many small fires before they spread, protecting your people, premises, and property from potential harm. A key component of your fire safety plans, it is vital that you equip your buildings with the correct extinguishers for each type of fire risk, train your staff in how to use them, and service and maintain the extinguishers to ensure that they are in perfect working order should you need them.
From a legal perspective too, all business owners have a responsibility to ensure that any organisation occupying an area up to 400 sq. metres has at least 2 x water and 1 x CO2 extinguishers to cover all fire risks. Larger premises require additional extinguishers, as appropriate.
At FireCare Security & Electrical, we take the burden of procuring, servicing and training staff on extinguisher use, so that you can concentrate on running your business. As part of our fire extinguisher solution, we’ll inspect your premises, determine which extinguishers are needed, and then supply, commission and install them. On an annual basis, and at a date and time convenient to your business, we’ll service your extinguishers – ensuring that your business complies with all applicable legal requirements, whilst doing everything possible to ensure the safety of your team.

How Often Should I Service our Fire Extinguishers?
