Yes. A fire extinguisher is required in every business in our district. In a small office setting, generally a multi-purpose dry chemical (commonly known as an A-B-C) extinguisher with a minimum rating of 2A is all that is required. If your business has other hazards or is larger than 11,250 sf or the extinguisher’s placement requires more than 75’ of travel to access, additional or different extinguishers may be required.
All commercial buildings in the WSFR district require a Knox Box. Please go to the Knox Box website to order this for your building. If you have any questions please reach out to the Community Risk Reduction Division at 977-686-2626 ext. 114
