New extinguisher

The new E-Series fire extinguisher from Jewel Fire Systems operates in the same way as other handheld extinguishers, but uses patented technology to create a superfine mist using nothing but purified water.

The size of the ultra fine particles means it is suitable for use against most types of fire, even fuel fires and electrical risks. The extinguisher has even been given an F-class rating, which certifies it is safe use on fat fires commonly found in kitchens. It is fully approved by the Loss Prevention Council (LPCB), and has full AKAS product certification and the BSI Kite Mark. The UK Fire Association has also publicly endorsed the product.

Alan Palmer, director and secretary of The UK Fire Association said: "This new extinguisher brings with it many benefits. Its multi-use purpose, the environmentally friendly angle, and the fact that it causes no damage to surrounding areas and items are huge. It will have a place in many public areas."
