forrest fire Posted September 4, 2016 Report Posted September 4, 2016 i have been asked to fit fire Extinguishers in a home but its a foster home. with British standards legislation saying For any story in a building with a floor area equal to or less than 400 m² there should be a minimum of 2 x class 'A' extinguishers with a minimum combined fire rating of 26A this i know for businesses and property but is a foster home, so dose the 2 x 13A rule apply to a home, Quote
AnthonyB Posted September 6, 2016 Report Posted September 6, 2016 It's a private dwelling so BS5306-8 does not apply. It's not law either and is purely guidance as it is unduly OTT in small premises. Quote
