Fire Extinguisher Selection Chart Guide & Template
Did you know that a fire department responds to a fire every 24 seconds in the United States? It’s true. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) says that while there are significantly fewer fires in the U.S. compared to 50 years ago, fires are still pretty common occurrences.
Why You Need a Fire Extinguisher Selection Template
On top of this, did you know that 67% of the firefighters responding to fires in the U.S. are volunteers? That’s right. According to the NFPA, 67% of the firefighters in the U.S. are people who volunteer to fight fires in their communities. This means there’s a very good chance that if your building catches on fire, the people coming to your aid will be people who have volunteered to leave their own jobs and family events to provide help.
This is why it’s so important to give fire departments a helping hand by selecting the right kind of fire extinguishers for your organization.
