Fire Extinguishers

A fire extinguisher is a portable fire protection device designed to control or extinguish small fires before they spread. Different types of extinguishers are designed for different classes of fire, making it important to choose the correct one for your environment.

The most common types of fire extinguishers include:

• ABC Dry Chemical Powder (DCP)
• CO₂ Fire Extinguishers
• Foam (AFFF) Fire Extinguishers
• Water Fire Extinguishers
• Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers
• Clean Agent Fire Extinguishers
• Automatic Fire Extinguishers

Each type is suitable for specific fire hazards.

The right fire extinguisher depends on the type of fire risk. For example:

• ABC Dry Powder – General-purpose use
• CO₂ – Electrical equipment
• Foam (AFFF) – Flammable liquids
• Water – Wood, paper, and cloth fires
• Wet Chemical – Commercial kitchens
• Clean Agent – Server rooms and sensitive electronic equipment

A professional fire safety assessment can help determine the best option for your property.
