Essential Equipment to Keep Your Premises Safe
FIRE SAFETY EQUIPMENT
EQUIPMENT TO ASSIST IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE
In the event of a small fire in your premises, the ability to react quickly is vital.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 places legally enforceable requirements on the “responsible person” and organisations for the safety of the relevant persons within the premises. In the event of a fire the “responsible person” must ensure that the premises and any facilities, equipment and devices provided in respect of the premise are subject to a system of maintenance and are maintained in efficient working order and good repair.
SS Systems can guide you through your responsibilities to comply with these regulations, contact are team to arrange a free survey.
Water Mist Fire Extinguishers
Water Mist Fire Extinguishers use innovative technology to create a powerful jet of water mist that both cools and suffocates the fire. The ultra fine mist not only lowers the risk of re-ignition because of its cooling effect, but it binds with smoke molecules and reduces the damage created by smoke to the surrounding areas.
Water Mist Fire Extinguishers are suitable for tackling general fires and deep fat fires with just one type of extinguisher. You can even extinguish electrical fires up to 35,000V safely.
Water Mist Fire extinguishers are non-toxic and don’t use harmful chemicals. So you won’t just quickly prevent a fire spreading and causing more damage, but you’ll lower the cost of the clean up compared to typical water, foam, chemical and powder extinguishers.

Fire Extinguisher Maintenance
British Standard 5306 Part 3 2017 recommends the annual inspection and service of fire extinguishers by a competent person. A competent person is defined as anyone appointed by the responsible person and someone who is qualified through training and experience to undertake the service and maintenance.
In addition to the annual service it is recommended that the “responsible person” carries out a visual inspection of all extinguishers and fire safety equipment on a regular basis to determine if the extinguisher has been discharged or damaged. This inspection is recommended at monthly intervals.
