How to use the template

1. 1

   Take stock

   Walk through all areas and enter each fire extinguisher with location, extinguishing agent, rating and fire classes. The extinguishing units follow from the rating on the device, for example 21A = 6 LE and 113B = 6 LE.

2. 2

   Enter servicing

   Take the date of the last servicing from the inspection sticker or the servicing report. The table calculates the next servicing – if the manufacturer's interval differs, enter it as the interval.

3. 3

   Compare areas and check

   Enter the floor area for each area in the second sheet and check whether the existing units are sufficient. During inspections, use the PDF list to check location, accessibility and sticker and pass on defects.
