Fire Extinguishers & Equipment FAQs

Have the P50 service-free extinguishers been passed by insurance companies?

Yes. All major insurances have approved P50 self-service fire extinguishers

Under the extinguisher servicing standard BS5306-3:2009 a competent person is required to maintain the extinguishers in accordance with manufacturer guidelines. Britannia state that only an annual visual inspection is required.

When you purchase P50 service-free extinguishers from us, our engineers will install the extinguishers free of charge and train you or your staff in how to carry out the simple yearly inspection. After this training, you are classed as a competent person. Our engineers will ensure that you have the right type and number of extinguishers in accordance with the relevant British Standards and will then issue you an installation certificate, which you can pass on to your insurer. 

There is also a video that demonstrates the visual inspection on the website if you need a refresher.
