EXTINGUISHERS

These are colour coded so that they can be identified quickly preventing the wrong extinguisher from being used. The Main body colour of the extinguisher has changed a couple of times over the past few years, however the type colour has remained the same.The main types of extinguishers that we supply are:

        • Water (Red)
        • Co2 (Black)
        • Dry Powder (Blue)
        • Foam (Cream)

Water extinguishers are usually coloured signal red.
Other types of extinguishers fall into a couple of categories, either:

  1. The entire body of the extinguisher is coloured in the type colour
  2. Predominantly red with a 5% second colour to indicate the contents of the extinguisher. Or
  3. Predominantly red with a bold coloured block in the relevant colour stating it’s type.
  4. It is recommended that extinguishers within the same building conform to a single colour scheme to avoid confusion

All our Fire extinguishers conform to the appropriate British Standard.
We can advise on the best locations & types of fire extinguishers to use.

SERVICING

As with Fire Alarm equipment it is important that Fire extinguishers are kept in good working order and serviced properly once a year.We offer annual servicing to ensure they work first time, every time and prevents potential damaging leaks.This is both required by law and fire insurers

FIRE BLANKETS

Our Fire blankets are made of fire resistant materials. They are particularly useful for smothering fat pan fires, and conform to BS 7944:1999 and BS EN1869:1997 which makes them suitable for use in homes.

HOSE REELS

Suited to large areas or corridors where a 9-litre extinguisher may not provide adequate cover.
