Instructions on fire extinguishers must be developed to ensure that mobile fire extinguishers are fully filled and in a working condition — located at all times in the designated places for them; the extinguishers must be placed in visible places in the usual corridors and accessible and accessible.

Guidance on fire extinguishers

  1. A programme must be developed to ensure that mobile fire extinguishers are fully filled and in a working condition — located at all times.
  2. Wastes must be placed in visible places in the usual corridors, accessible and accessible.
  3. The location of the fire extinguishers must be marked by the placing of a red square above every extinguisher and, if possible, by an appropriate size, the paint of the wall behind every red extinguisher.

In places where the extinguisher cannot be seen because of barriers that may be blocked, the location of the extinguisher must be marked by a marked mark and an appropriate height indicating the location of the extinguisher.

  1. All extinguishers must have specific markings of their type and clearly so that the right type can be chosen when a fire occurs. (as illustrated in figure 3)
  2. All manual waste must be placed on pregnant women or in their own boxes or on a shelves, except for wheels.
  3. Hand-held extinguishers must be suspended so as not to increase the upper part of them from:

Up to 1.5 metres (5 feet) of land - for children with a total weight of 18 kg (40 pounds) or less.
At 1 metre height (123 feet) from the surface of the Earth - for the childhoods with a total weight of over 18 kilograms (40 pounds).

  1. The extinguisher must be suspended so that its distinctive markings and operating instructions are on the outside side.
  2. Various types of waste must be available to protect buildings by type of flammable material that may exist in the building.
  3. Fire extinguishers must be distributed at easily accessible locations and not more than 15 metres (50 feet).
  4. At least one mobile fire extinguisher of the type and watch specified by the relevant authority shall be located at least 8 metres and no more than 15 metres from any storage area for flammable liquids located abroad.
  5. Fire extinguishers must be provided in each of the multi-role buildings according to the above-mentioned requirements. In addition, at least one extinguisher is placed at each exit zone.
  6. Wheeled or mobile waste placed in exposed areas must be protected from direct sunlight or surrounding weather conditions, and so on.
