​Do I need a fire extinguisher in my motorhome or caravan?

 

Yes – absolutely. Your caravan or motorhome is a secondary residence and often a shared space with loved ones. With cooking, heating, and electrical appliances all in close quarters, the risk of fire is real. It's also important to remember that your means of escape in the event of a fire are limited.

 

There are up to 360 caravan fires reported in the UK each year. With the popularity of camping, caravans, and motorhomes continuing to grow over the past two years, this number is likely to rise steadily.

 

We understand that space is at a premium inside a caravan or motorhome. Traditional 2kg extinguishers can be bulky—up to four times the size and ten times the weight of a Fire Safety Stick. Add a fire blanket into the mix, and you’re sacrificing valuable storage. In contrast, the Fire Safety Stick can be conveniently mounted using the supplied wall bracket, taking up minimal space.

 

It’s also crucial to carry the correct type of fire extinguisher for your environment.

When you’re out exploring the countryside, creating memories, and enjoying time with those who matter most, it’s reassuring to know you're prepared and protected should the unexpected happen.
