If you have already purchased this extinguisher and need to replace its support hook, we suggest the CFL15 wall hook. Due to the weight of this extinguisher, we recommend the use of the cart (EXCAD) to ensure quick movement to the fire scene.

We also recommend installing signs to indicate the location of your fire extinguishers, given that proper signage can help reduce reaction time in case of fire. Our signs are available in a variety of sizes and materials and can be found in the Fire Protection Signs category.
