This independent report titled “An Evaluation of the Role of Fire Extinguishers” by David Wales gives an interesting insight into how portable fire extinguishers have for so long been underestimated in fire protection for residential properties.  The UK Fire Association is proud to stand alongside IFEDA in supporting David Wales conclusions to encourage wider recognition and early adoption of the reports many findings.  This will require reverse thinking for many involved in residential fire protection who appear to have had their views for fighting small fires in the home based more upon assumptions than facts.

This is a must read if you conduct fire risk assessments in residential properties or supply/maintain portable fire extinguishers https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/read/65405266/an-evaluation-of-the-role-of-fire-extinguishers
