Fire Extinguisher Requirements for Commercial Premises in Ireland

Under Irish fire safety legislation — specifically the Fire Services Act 1981 & 2003 and the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 — all commercial premises are legally required to have adequate fire extinguisher provision. The type and number of extinguishers required depends on the size and use of your premises, the nature of any fire risks present, and the layout of the building.

RFC's engineers carry out a full assessment of your premises before recommending the correct extinguisher types and quantities. All recommendations comply with Irish Standard IS 291 and the Fire Services Act.

Types of Fire Extinguisher We Supply

  • Water (Red) — Class A fires. Ordinary combustibles — paper, wood, textiles. Suitable for offices, schools and retail.
  • Foam (Cream) — Class A and B fires. Flammable liquids. Suitable for most commercial premises.
  • CO2 (Black) — Class B and electrical fires. Essential for offices, server rooms and commercial kitchens.
  • Dry Powder (Blue) — Class A, B and C fires. Multi-purpose use. Suitable for garages, plant rooms and industrial premises.
  • Wet Chemical (Yellow) — Class F fires. Commercial kitchens and cooking oils. Legally required in hotel and restaurant kitchens.
  • Water Mist — Class A, B, C and electrical. Modern premises. Environmentally friendly alternative.

Annual Fire Extinguisher Servicing

Under Irish fire safety regulations, fire extinguishers must be serviced annually by a competent person. RFC's EQA-certified engineers carry out full annual inspections, extended service and overhaul of all extinguisher types across Dublin and Leinster.

Each annual service includes:

  • Full visual inspection of extinguisher body and components
  • Check of pressure gauge and safety pin
  • Weight check to confirm correct charge level
  • Discharge test where required by manufacturer
  • Service label updated with date and engineer certification number
  • Compliance certificate issued for your fire safety records

Basic Annual Service Every 12 months All extinguisher types

Overhaul / Replacement Every 10 years All types or replace
Discharge Test Per manufacturer schedule Cartridge-operated types

How Many Fire Extinguishers Do I Need?

The number of fire extinguishers required for your premises depends on the floor area, layout, occupancy and fire risk level. As a general guide, Irish Standard IS 291 recommends one 13A-rated extinguisher per 200m² of floor area, with a minimum of two extinguishers per floor.

RFC carries out a full fire risk assessment of your premises before making any recommendation, ensuring you have the correct type and number of extinguishers in the correct locations — and that you are fully compliant with Irish fire safety law.
