I need to buy a quality fire extinguisher training DVD, but which one? They cost a lot of money and until you play them, there's absolutely no way of telling how good they are. So what I want is a demonstration of extinguishers, if possible on a real (not simulated) fire - although that's not a 100% requirement. The demonstration must cover safety points, such as testing the extinguisher prior to moving close The DVD must show Water, foam, foam spray, ABC powder, & Wet Chemical. The DVDs available online range from £50 to £250!! My budget is not a problem, but it needs to be a good quality training film (no gimmicks, no cheesey narration and UK based with no porn movie type soundtrack please!!!!) So any recommendations??

Hi Messy This site may be worth looking at: Focus On Fire Extinguishers http://www.firetrainingv...ire-safety-dvds/FOE.html The home page is on http://www.firetrainingvideos.com/ Cheers

Hi Messy I came across your post while researching a new training DVD. I'm from FTV and have seen your post - re:DVD's. We produce all of our programs 'in house', I personally have been involved in the Fire Industry for over 30 years, as a Crash Rescue Fire Fighter, Consultant, Trainer and for the last 15 years in producing Fire Safety Training programmes. We try not to use cheesy porn soundtracks and only use UK VO artists. We can adapt programmes only include the relevant extinguishers to a premises. We can add company logos (at no additional cost). If your interested in viewing you can use the contact us page on our website www.firetrainingvideos.com.

The fire warden interactive DVD from Safety media is a good choice.

Thank to all for your help. Handler, I may well contact your company What I was really after was reviews, recommendations for DVDs you use or have seen. I don't really need links to DVDs you have found, as I have probably already found them. They must be extinguisher operating films only (no fire warden stuff) and cover all the main extinguishers, plus wet chemical. I do wish the DVD suppliers would offer a full synopsis with watermarked/protected images just to let you know what you are getting for your bucks

Out of interest have you seen this short video demonstrating how effective water mist fire extinguishers are on clothing fires. http://www.safelincs.co.uk/video_player.php?vid=50
