FAQ:
Q: What are fire safety extinguishers?
A: Fire safety extinguishers are portable devices used to suppress and extinguish fires. They are filled with fire-suppressing agents that are discharged onto the fire, reducing its heat and eliminating fuel sources. Fire safety extinguishers are classified based on the type of fire they are designed to extinguish, such as Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), Class C (electrical fires), and Class D (combustible metals).
Q: How do fire safety extinguishers work?
A: Fire safety extinguishers work by removing one or more elements of the fire triangle: heat, fuel, and oxygen. Depending on the type of extinguisher, they use different fire-suppressing agents. For example, water extinguishers cool the fire by absorbing heat, foam extinguishers form a blanket to smother the fire and separate it from oxygen, dry chemical extinguishers interrupt the chemical reaction of the fire, and CO2 extinguishers displace oxygen, suffocating the fire.
Q: When should I use a fire safety extinguisher?
A: Fire safety extinguishers should be used when a fire is small and contained, and it is safe to do so. If the fire is spreading rapidly or is too large to handle with an extinguisher, evacuate the area immediately and call emergency services. It is important to remember the acronym "PASS" when using an extinguisher: Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep the nozzle from side to side while aiming at the base of the fire.
Q: How often should fire safety extinguishers be inspected and maintained?
A: Fire safety extinguishers should be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure their proper functioning. It is recommended to have them inspected annually by a certified fire safety professional who can check for any damage, verify pressure levels, and ensure that all components are in working order. Some jurisdictions may also require periodic hydrostatic testing to assess the integrity of the extinguisher's cylinder.
