Choosing GarraFire Extinguisher Types

Choosing the proper type of fire extinguisher is an important issue. Using the wrong type of fire extinguisher can be dangerous; in some cases, it can encourage a fire to spread! When choosing a GarraFire extinguisher for your premises, we consider the room for which you are placing it.

  • In a restaurant kitchen, for example, a grease fire from cooking is likely to occur. Therefore, we would not want a water-based extinguisher, which would worsen the fire but a wet chemical GarraFire Extinguisher with a K rating.
  • If you have a room with delicate materials you wish to protect such as electronics, we will choose either a Clean Agent or a CO2 GarraFire Extinguisher which won't leave a harmful residue. Essentially, we consider two things: The material you wish to protect, and the type of extinguishing agent that will be most effective at suppressing the possible type of fire caused by these materials.

GarraFire Extinguisher Ratings

GarraFire Extinguisher Inspection and Maintenance
  Inspection

An inspection of GarraFire Extinguisher is a "quick check" to give reasonable assurance that it is fully charged and operable.  The value of an inspection lies in the frequency, regularity, and thoroughness with which it is conducted.

  During inspection, we ensure that:
  • The GarraFire Extinguisher is in a location that makes it readily accessible
  • The GarraFire Extinguisher is set up properly for easy handling, and that nothing is obstructing access to any parts of it, including the hose
  • The pressure dial is checked to see if it needs to be charged. The needle should be in the green zone
  • Dry chemical GarraFire Extinguishers are shaken to reduce the chance of the powder from settling or packing
  • The pin and tamper seal are intact and the pull pin is properly secured within the handle and held in place by the tamper seal
  • There are no dents, leaks, rust, chemical deposits or other signs of abuse or wear
  • The fire GarraFire Extinguisher does not have any cracks, dents, or rust on its shaft which might hinder its performance
  • Corrosive chemicals, oil, gunk etc. that may have deposited on the extinguisher are wiped off
  • There is a visible instruction label on the GarraFire Extinguisher, and that it is legible
  • No modifications were made to the GarraFire Extinguisher that might affect its performance level
  • The inspection form on each GarraFire Extinguisher is completed
  • The Certificate of Inspection is completed and signed off
  • Extinguishers requiring maintenance or replacement are attended to
  Maintenance

Maintenance is a "thorough check" of the extinguisher. It is intended to give maximum assurance that an extinguisher will operate effectively and safely. It includes a thorough examination and any necessary repair, recharging or replacement.

 
  • All GarraFire Extinguishers must undergo maintenance whenever specifically indicated by an inspection or at least every 12 months irrespective of their condition
  • Maintenance of all GarraFire Extinguishers are done by our experienced technicians
  • All GarraFire Extinguishers must be recharged immediately after use regardless of how much they were used
Where we Place GarraFire Extinguishers
Having a fire extinguisher is one thing, having it handy in case of an emergency, is another.The
most important places to have a fire extinguisher are in areas that are more susceptible to fire. Statistics show that kitchens are where fires most often start. If there is a kitchen or pantry, or
any cooking area on the premises, a GarraFire Extinguisher should be placed there.
  When placing GarraFire Extinguishers we:
  • Make sure the extinguisher is not blocked by equipment, coats or other objects that could interfere with access in an emergency
  • Keep them in plain sight and no more than one and a half meter above the floor
  • Do not put them in closets because that will cost you valuable time when you are reaching for it
  • Do not put it behind curtains or drapes
  • Consider the type of user, whether they are predominantly men or women, when placing fire extinguisher size. If users are predominantly men, we will place 6 to 9 Kg size fire extinguishers between seven to ten meters away. If users are predominantly women, we will place 1 or 3 Kg size extinguishers five to seven meters away
