6ltr Water Commander Fire Extinguisher
Product Information:
Water Fire Extinguishers are suitable for A Class fires which are fires involving solid, combustible materials such as wood, paper, straw, textiles and coal. Water fire extinguishers are suitable for use in a wide range of environments including offices, factories and warehouses. Water fire extinguishers are recommended for use on solid fuel burning fires such as paper, fabric and furniture. The FireMart 9ltr water fire extinguisher is filled only with pure water and is therefore safe for the environment. Water fire extinguishers are often paired with 2kg Carbon Dioxide (Co2) extinguishers providing protection against class A and B fires. Water fire extinguishers should NOT be used on live electrical equipment. The fire extinguishers are supplied complete with bracket and can quickly and easily be wall mounted or placed on a fire extinguisher floor stand.
The FireMart Water fire extinguishers are stored pressure fire extinguishers meaning that they are supplied ready filled and pressurised. The fire extinguishers also feature an easy to read pressure gauge. The pressure gauge helps to ensure that the fire extinguisher is safe for use: if the fire extinguisher is pressurised and ready for use, the pressure gauge will be in the green zone. If the fire extinguisher has lost pressure, the reading will be in the red zone and requires remedial attention.
How do water fire extinguishers work?
Water is an effective cooling agent which works by asborbing heat from a fire. The fire extinguishers are stored pressure and are supplied fully filled.

Ensure that fire extinguishers are located along exit routes and that there is a distance of no more than 30 metres between fire extinguishers.
Ensure that extinguishers are located near to room exits, landings, lobbies and stairways meaning that people can use fire extinguishers to help them to safely evacuate a building in the event of a fire.
Ensure that a fire extinguisher identification sign (ID sign) is located above a fire extinguisher as this will instruct people on how to operate the extinguisher in the case of a fire.
Ensure that fire extinguishers are wall mounted so that the carrying handle is 1m from the floor for heavier units (e.g. 9ltr/9kg fire extinguishers and above) and 1.5m for smaller units (e.g. 6ltr/6kg fire extinguishers)
