Fire extinguishers

Overview

Correctly maintained fire extinguishers are proven to be effective at tackling fires in their early stages.

However it’s imperative that the right type of extinguisher is used as each type is designed to deal with differnet types of fuel, for example a water extinguisher should never be used on a chip pan fire, infact it will probably make things considerably worse!

As well as carrying out comprehensive checks on your extinguishers our Edifice engineers assess the combustible materials in any given area and select extinguishers accordingly, so that when you really need them the right extinguisher is at hand.
