Fire Extinguishers
Fire extinguishers are essential safety equipment that can quickly prevent a fire from spreading. There are several different portable fire extinguisher classifications pertaining to the types of materials they’re used to combat. For example, a Class A fire extinguisher is the best choice for controlling the burning of solid, non-metal materials such as paper, cloth and rubber, while a Class C fire extinguisher is used to control electrical fires. The best places to keep fire extinguishers in a home are the kitchen, garage and master bedroom, as well as near outdoor cooking areas.
