Extinguishers, when used properly, save lives. . .

Fire extinguishers play a vital role in an overall fire safety program. According to the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards, four basic conditions must be met for them to perform that role, however:

Extinguishers must be properly located and in good working condition.
They must be the proper type for the fire that might occur.
The fire must be discovered in time.
There must be someone ready, willing and able to use the extinguisher.

The NFPA also says…”the owner or occupant should give proper attention to the inspection, maintenance, and recharging of the fore protective equipment and should also train personnel in the correct use of fire extinguishers on the different types of fire which may occur on the property.” That means fire safety training by qualified and effective trainers. That training could make the difference between minor damage and a devastating blaze. Or even between life and death.

Fire safety education might just be one of the best investments you’ll ever make. You’ve already invested a major amount of money in equipment; now make that investment grow in value by training your people how to use it properly.
