FAQs

How do I use the fire extinguisher?

Remove the safety pin, aim the nozzle at the base of the fire, and squeeze the handle. Sweep from side to side.

What types of fires can this extinguisher put out?

It is effective on Class B (flammable liquids), Class C (gases), and electrical fires.

Where should I store the fire extinguisher?

Store it in an accessible location, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

How often should I inspect the extinguisher?

Inspect it regularly (e.g., monthly) to ensure it is in good working condition and the pressure gauge (if present) indicates the correct pressure.

What should I do after using the extinguisher?

Even if the fire is extinguished, ventilate the area, and consider calling the fire department. Replace the extinguisher after use.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes, it includes a five-year manufacturer's guarantee (T&Cs apply).

Is the extinguisher refillable?

No, this is a disposable aerosol extinguisher.

Troubleshooting

Extinguisher doesn't discharge.

Check if the safety pin is removed and that the nozzle is not blocked. If the extinguisher has been used or the pressure is low, it needs to be replaced.

Extinguisher seems to lose pressure.

Check for any visible damage. If there's no apparent damage, the unit may need replacement due to a possible internal leak.
