Fire Extinguishers

Fire Extinguishers

Fire extinguishers are portable tools used to put out a small fire by applying a substance that deprives the flame of oxygen, cools the burning material, or interferes with the chemical reactions occurring in the flame. With the exemption of family homes, manufactured homes, and duplexes, all kinds of industrial, commercial, and residential buildings are mandated by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to make fire extinguishers accessible in strategic locations.
