Hi. I’m opening up a shop this month and am keen to adhere to all of the legislation. Currently looking at the P-50 extinguishers as this seems the best option for me. The shop is very small, approximately 40-60m2. No specific risks, so looking at the foam version. One entrance and one exit in the small back room (no bigger than 8m2). I've read that a minimum of 2 extinguishers are needed, but if small enough then only one is required. But can’t find anything concrete on what size is classed as small. The previous occupier only had a 9L water extinguisher which is still in place, but will be removed as it’s not been serviced for a very long time so will likely need replacing. Many of the other units are also the same size and they only seem to have small car sized foam or powder extinguishers which I also gather wouldn’t meet the requirements.
