All too often we purchase our fire extinguishers, place them, and figure that from there on, we are set! Right? Well…not quite. Whether in your home or your business, you need to periodically inspect your fire extinguishers to be sure that they are in good shape and ready to use in the event they are needed.
This is a common question we are asked by customers who are looking to purchase fire extinguishers for their home or their business. Unfortunately, there isn’t a simple cookie cutter answer for this question. Local laws, NFPA and OSHA have different requirements that you’ll need to research and evaluate before making a decision. But we can help and give you a list of things to consider when doing your calculations.
There is a fire, hurry we need to put it out! But wait…..what type of fire is it?
…….in an emergency, you’re probably not going to stop and ask yourself that question. That is why you’re here though. You know you need to find and answer to your question before anything happens.
