About the configuration of fire extinguishers?

According to Article 24 of the Fire Protection Law, all kinds of buildings should be equipped with fire extinguishers according to national standards or industry standards, and the fire extinguishers should be inspected, maintained and replaced regularly.

Specifically, the national standard "Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings" (GB 500 16-20 14) stipulates the configuration requirements of fire extinguishers in various buildings, as follows:

Building Type | Configuration Requirements

Houses, hotels, restaurants and shopping malls | Each room, suite and corridor shall not exceed 30m2, and each floor shall be equipped with at least 1 fire extinguishers.

Office buildings, schools, hospitals, theaters, gymnasiums | Each room, suite and corridor shall not exceed 50m2, and each floor shall be equipped with at least 1 fire extinguishers.

Cultural facilities such as libraries, museums and archives | Each room, suite and corridor shall not exceed 100m2, and each floor shall be equipped with at least 1 fire extinguisher.

Industrial buildings such as factories, warehouses and workshops | Each room, suite and corridor shall not exceed 200m2, and each floor shall be equipped with at least 1 fire extinguisher.

High-rise building | Each floor shall be equipped with at least 2 fire extinguishers, and each floor shall be equipped with at least 1 fire extinguishers.

In addition to the above provisions, fire extinguishers should also be configured according to the specific conditions of the building. For example, flammable and explosive places such as kitchens and paint rooms should be equipped with dry powder fire extinguishers; The electrical equipment room should be equipped with carbon dioxide fire extinguishers.

There are also relevant laws and regulations on the use of fire extinguishers. Article 43 of the Fire Protection Law stipulates that no unit or individual shall obstruct the normal use of fire protection facilities and equipment, and shall not dismantle, move or damage fire protection facilities and equipment without authorization. For units and individuals that violate the regulations, the fire department has the right to order them to make corrections, and may impose administrative penalties such as fines.

In a word, the configuration requirements and use regulations of fire extinguishers are to ensure the fire safety of buildings and protect people's lives and property. All units and individuals should seriously abide by relevant laws and regulations, and regularly check, repair and replace fire extinguishers to ensure their normal use.
