What about spacing between fire extinguishers?

We have the typical Multipurpose extinguishers that are mounted throughout the shop. But we also have water extinguishers. These are not mounted as we require techs welding on refrigerator trailers to keep them beside them to spray any foam insulation that begins to smolder. I've been told these need mounted as well but like I stated we require techs to move them to their work bays. Would we be out of compliance?
