Fire Extinguishers & Fire Blankets
Essential Part of
Responding to
a Fire
A portable fire extinguisher is a critical first-attack firefighting appliance that can be used by anyone. With simple operation and fixed operating instructions, they are an essential part of any fire response plan. Understanding the location of fire extinguishers and which classes of fires they are suitable for is crucial for any property owner.
Fire blankets are made from non-flammable synthetic materials and are used to extinguish small fires by covering them until they are smothered. Containers for fire blankets include step-by-step instructions for proper use. After use, a fire blanket and its container should be replaced with a new one.
According to AS 2444-2001 regulations, extinguishers must be situated every 20 meters and affixed at a specific level, with appropriate signage and tags to ensure visibility to everyone.
