Do you have a fire extinguisher for you home? Do you know how to use it for fast and effective fire suppression? It really isn’t too difficult but there are a few steps to follow when using the right extinguisher for the type of material that is burning. Here are some pics from a recent training where we always emphasize extinguishment using a sweeping motion at the base of the fire. Stay safe, y’all.
