Good morning all, We had a recent visit from a fire authority and they requested that we have signs at the entrances to our premises to alert fire fighters to the presence of gas canisters such as to inflate helium balloons and to make fizzy drinks in the café. there are not many in total. I don't recall seeing these anywhere except on the back of certain cars on the motorway that are obviously transporting these for one reason or another. Does anyone know whether this is legislated or more of a nice to have? I have no objection to it, just wanted to add some meat to the bone so to speak.

Hi Paul911, It is from guidance, https://www.gov.uk/gover...1/fsra-offices-shops.pdf Good practice for all employees and visitors of the premises, but it does mention information fire services, which for larger quantities would mean a more formal means but for your quantities I guess they see that as sufficient. Regards
