Types of Fire Extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are versatile fire safety products that contain varying substances suited to different types of fire. There are more than 42 different types of fire extinguishers, the most common of which are water, CO2, foam, dry powder, and wet chemical extinguishers. All the extinguishers supplied by ABC Fire and Safety meet British Standards BS5306-3:2017 & BS5306-8:2012.
Servicing and Inspections
Additionally, fire extinguishers should be visually inspected by your designated competent person once a month, in accordance with BS5306. We are happy to provide advice, guidance, and training for your competent person, usually a fire warden, to show what they should be looking for when conducting these inspections.
