Fire extinguisher | Chubb fire extinguishers supplier

The fire extinguisher has improved hugely in recent years and, with many important developments in extinguishants, there is a type now available for virtually any fire situation, whether it be from Chubb fire extinguishers or from us.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to virtually every type of premises and has been the Law since October 2006. In effect, if any person will enter the premises, it is the legal duty of the premises owner/manager to ensure their safety by supplying and maintaining the correct fire extinguishers. To decide what to install, there are classes of fires and different extinguishers have the ones they are good for listed on top of the front label. A quick guide is as follows

Class A fires (wood, paper, material, cloth, etc)

Recommended extinguishers include water (all red), water with additive (all red), AFFF foam spray (red with cream area above label), ABC powder (red with blue area above label)

Class B (flammable liquids such as petrol, spirits and diesel)

Recommended extinguishers include AFFF foam, ABC powder, CO2 or carbon dioxide (red with black area above label), Monnex powder (red with blue area above label)

Class C (flammable gas)

Recommended extinguishers include powder but only when the gas can be turned off

Class D (flammable metals)

Recommended extinguishers include M28 powder, L2 powder and other specialised powders

Class F (deep fat cooking oil)

Recommended extinguisher is only the wet chemical (red with yellow area above label) and no other

Fires involving electrical equipment (there is no 'class E' in the UK)

Recommended extinguishers include CO2 (carbon dioxide), FE36 (automatic extinguishers) and powder

Fire extinguishers are not door stops. They should be properly fixed to the wall or mounted on special fire extinguishers stands.

A monthly visual inspection should be done in-house and recorded in a Fire Log Book and a BAFE approved extinguisher technician should perform a maintenance service to BS 5306 part 3 once a year (or more if necessary).

Fire Protection Online's extinguishers are manufactured to the highest possible quality by Thomas Glover and Company (part of UTC along with Chubb Fire and Kidde) and have genuine full BAFE (British Approvals for Fire Equipment) certification, BSi Kitemark to BS EN3 and CE Mark (a legal requirement with the Pressure Equipment Directive - PED).

Be aware that many cheap foreign imports claim these approvals but they can't often prove them so call BAFE and BSi to check if you are not sure. You do not want to trust your life to a cheap fire extinguisher with no real approvals.
