A fire that occurred in another city in May 2021 caused an accident in which fire extinguisher employees used in initial-stage fire-fighting techniques. exploded and injured. The ruptured fire extinguisher was an "old standard fire extinguisher" that had not been inspected for a long time and had to be replaced by December 31, 2021.
In the wake of the accident, we immediately issued a warning, but since the replacement period for the fire extinguisher, which is based on the Fire Service Law, is only two months left, we will work intensively to disseminate "appropriate maintenance of fire extinguisher" and "promotion of legal inspections" in cooperation with the Yokohama City Disaster Prevention Equipment Sales Cooperative.
