		+	The most common extinguishing agents are:
		+
		+	* Water
		+	* Foam
		+	* Carbon dioxide
		+	* Dry powder
		+	* Clean agents
		+	* Inert gases
		+
		+	These agents can be applied either by the occupants themselves, through auto-suppression systems, or by the fire and rescue service.
		+
		+	Sprinklers are designed to extinguish small fires or contain growing fires until the fire-and-rescue service arrives. Almost all buildings over 30m high must be fitted with a sprinkler system installed in accordance with the appropriate British Standards.
		+
		+	Sprinkler heads are heat sensitive and normally activate at 68°C. Each sprinkler head acts as its own heat detector and only those in the fire area will be activated. An individual sprinkler head typically covers around 9m2.
		+
		+	In certain buildings, it can be difficult for the fire-and-rescue service to safely reach and work close to fires. Under such circumstances, additional facilities are required to ensure that there is no delay and to provide a secure operating base. This might include:
		+
		+	* Firefighting routes
		+	* Firefighting lifts
		+	* Firefighting stairs
		+	* Firefighting shaft.
