A small number of Blazex water extinguishers have experienced a tube holder defect. The units possibly affected were manufactured between January 2015 and November 2018. These products were mainly branded Tyco and JCI have taken action and responsibility for these. In addition there were a very small quantity sold branded Britannia Blazex.

After becoming aware, Britannia Fire began outsourcing a new component and Britannia Fire’s QA Dept have tested parts to ensure the extinguishers work as intended. Trials of the parts were successful and all Blazex Water Extinguishers are now fitted with the new parts.

If on inspection any of these Britannia Blazex branded extinguishers are found to have a defective tube holder please contact Britannia Fire  who can provide a replacement component.
