Fire Extinguisher Services

Fire extinguishers are small, inexpensive, and your first line of defense during a fire. Access to a functional fire extinguisher can prevent a small fire from turning into a deadly blaze, saving lives and property. United Fire Protection is a full-service fire extinguisher provider – one company to call for needs identification, purchase, repair, testing, and installation. With four locations, Tampa, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, and Atlanta, United Fire Protection will help identify the appropriate fire extinguisher for your commercial property, data-center, hotel, healthcare facility, government building, or warehouse

What Type of Fire Extinguisher Do I Need?

Fire extinguishers are designed to extinguish a specific class of fire, class A, class B, or class C. It is critical to assess your entire building to determine the class of fire(s) you may face. One area may be susceptible to a class A fire and require a water extinguisher while another area may be susceptible to both class A and class B fires and require a foam fire extinguisher.

Are Fire Extinguishers Required by Law?

In most cases, fire extinguishers are required in commercially owned buildings. The specific requirements are based on federal, state, and local codes.

How Many Fire Extinguishers Should Businesses Have?

The number of fire extinguishers necessary to keep your property safe is unique to each structure. The size and layout of each room, fire hazards, and stairwells are just a few of the determining factors.

Where Should Fire Extinguishers Be Located?

The simple and unclear answer to this question is that the correct type of fire extinguisher should be easily accessible during a fire emergency. Mounting hardware, height, placement, and signage are all dependent on the type of fire extinguisher, the location of the risk, and the travel distance to the fire extinguisher.

Identifying the legal requirements, type, number, and location for fire extinguishers is a complex process that requires an extensive property evaluation by a qualified fire protection company.
