6 The Kinematograph Year Book. FOR ALL CINEMA FIRE DANGERS The range of " Pyrene " Fire Appliances and Instalhrttons covers all cinema fire risks. The " Pyrene " Everyway Hose Reel offers ideal protection for the Cinema itself and there are " PYRENE," " PHOMENE "and " CONQUEST" Extinguishers for special risks. The " Pyrene " Automatic Fire Extinguisher for Cinema Projectors automatically puts out film fires and simultaneously cuts off the arc and stops the motor. Its action is so rapid that only one or two frames of film are damaged. During the war period it is more than ever necessary that all Fire Protection equipment should be properly maintained. The Hire Maintenance Service undertaken by the Pyrene Company, Limited, covers the supply of hand Fire Extinguishers, inspection twice annually, supply of spare parts, repainting and finally replacement where necessary, all within a yearly maintenance fee. Alternatively, for an economical inclusive annual fee you can have your existing hand fire extinguishers examined, recharged and expertly serviced one or more times a year as required. Certificates issued after each visit to meet local requirements where such exist. You will want to know all about these services which so many Cinema Proprietors have welcomed enthusiastically.
