So, it has been made compulsory in many countries that commercial establishments and large residential flats should have this equipment at least one in a floor. Even though, fire accidents do not happen frequently, they are just safety equipment that can be of great use to protect the life of inmates. Not only lives of people, but also devices that were purchased with huge investment lying in the buildings can be protected in the event of fire accidents since they are capable of extinguishing fire within no time.
