Fire insurance will cover any loss resulted from a fire, that will include the actual fire damage, the damage resulted from the fire extinguishing system, falling objects on third partied resulted in medical expenses, and the list goes on and on.

All risk insurance is a broader term sometimes referred to as (special perils insurance), the wording of the policy will not include include covered risks, but exclude certain risks not to be covered.

Fire insurance is a main type of insurance classes and has a separate insurance policy that insure and covers fire perils plus allied perils .

While all risk insurance are various types of insurance classes such as marine all risks and contractors all risks which covering specific perils related to the subject matter of insurance and /or interest insured , and the fire peril is embedded in the cover .

Also I may add , that the all risks insurance policies mentioned above are covering all risks and excludes some others depending on the insurance policy conditions .
