Do I need fire extinguishers?
Yes, the law states that employers must provide people located within areas under their control with adequate means of tackling a fire.
Do I need to get my fire extinguishers serviced?
Yes, the Fire Safety Order 2005 states that a competent person must at least
annually service the fire extinguishers to BS 5306-3. You are also required to carry out checks, at least monthly, to ensure
all your fire extinguishers are in a good repair between services.
What qualifications are required to be classed as a competant person?
A competent person is some who has had and continues to have sufficient training, experience, knowledge and has passed both a written and practical examinations enabling them to undertake fire extinguisher maintenance.
How many and of which type of fire extinguisher do i require?
This will is calculated by the size of your premises and fire risks
associated within it. The minimum requirements for any floor is now 2 extinguishers with a combined rating of at least 26A,
this would cover 200 sq mtrs, additional extinguishers may be required to cover other risks. Example: A Co2 to cover electrical
risks.
I have been informed Dry Powder type extinguishers should not be found within my building, why?
My current fire extinguisher inspection company tells me its cheaper to replace than refill, is this correct?
There are instances
where this may be true, if the extinguisher has a plastic head cap for example, but if the extinguisher is in good condition then
its incorrect. It could be the case that the person is either not willing to carry out a extended service or they just want
to sell you a new fire extinguisher. Lots of companies pay commission to there technicians, they get 1% for a refill or 10%
for a sale, you do the maths! We do not pay our staff by commission.
