Story

“Wet Chemical” portable fire extinguishers have been specified and installed at The Crown Hotel, in the historic town of Stamford, by Newflame Fire Equipment. This type of extinguisher is designed to deliver the best possible chance of extinguishing fires involving hot cooking oils and fats.

The 17th Century hotel has a very busy kitchen area and Manager Tim Pratt said, “We are very impressed with the capabilities of the Class F fire extinguisher and, whilst we haven’t had to use it in anger yet, the training given to our team by Newflame has let us experience what it can do.”
