About this asset

This red metal fire extinguisher Revit family is a standard safety appliance for documenting emergency equipment in building models. This fire extinguisher features a cylindrical red metal body with a black discharge hose and handle mechanism. The design includes a clear, vertical instructional label on the front, detailing operation steps and safety symbols. The top assembly consists of a metallic valve, a black trigger handle, and a yellow safety pin. The proportions are typical of a standard portable unit, designed to be wall-mounted or placed in a cabinet. The geometry is clean and functional, providing sufficient detail for interior elevations and safety planning documentation within a Revit project environment.

The download is a 3.4 MB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

In Revit, this family is typically placed as a wall-hosted or floor-standing component within interior views. Users should load the RFA file into the project and place it on appropriate wall surfaces or floor plans near exit routes. The model is lightweight, making it suitable for inclusion in large-scale building models without compromising performance. It can be scheduled using standard fire safety equipment parameters to track quantities and locations across multiple levels of a building design.

This asset is essential for life safety and fire protection planning in residential, commercial, and industrial building projects. It is commonly placed in corridors, lobbies, kitchens, and plant rooms during the design development and construction documentation stages. Architects and fire safety consultants use this component to verify compliance with local building codes regarding the placement and visibility of fire suppression equipment. It pairs effectively with other safety elements like emergency signage, fire hose reels, and exit lighting in comprehensive facility management models.
