A water extinguisher is for use on Class A fires – those involving wood, paper, plastics, coal and fabrics. On no account whatsoever should water extinguishers be used for fire fighting where live electrical equipment or flammable liquids are involved. This means that water fire extinguishers are best teamed with powder extinguishers and or Co2 Fire Extinguishers anywhere that multiple fire risks exist.
We offer a range of water fire extinguishers in a number of sizes. Some are stainless steel red label fire extinguishers, others are in the traditional all-red finish. The former are ideal for use in design-led interiors, hospitals and clean room applications where hygiene is paramount. All our extinguishers have a five-year guarantee, and are supplied with fittings.

Water fire extinguisher should be used for Class A fires involving solids only, such as wood, paper, plastics and fabrics. They are not suitable for use on Class B liquid fires e.g. paraffin, petrol, oil based fires, chip pan fires or on electrical fires including where electricity is involved. Water fire extinguisher are colour coded with a red label (not to be confused with the normal red paint finish on the main body of the extinguisher). The fire extinguisher works by water under pressure cooling burning material.
Using a water fire extinguisher:
- Pull out the retaining pin (this will snap the plastic "pull tight" security seal) and squeeze the grip to discharge the extinguisher.
- Direct the jet at the base of the flame and keep it moving across the area of the fire.
- Seek out any hot spots after the main fire is extinguished.
- A fire spreading vertically should be attacked at its lowest point and followed upwards.
