How to use Your Fire Extinguisher
(The Key is the right PASS word)

Carbon dioxide is discharged as a white cloud of "snow" which smothers a fire by eliminating its oxygen. It is effective for Class B flammable liquid fires and is electrically non-conductive. Carbon Dioxide is a clean, non-contaminating, odorless gas, safe for use on clothing, equipment, valuable documents or food. Along with the portable sizes listed below carbon dioxide extinguishers are available in 50 and 100 pound wheeled configurations.

Quick Fact:  24% of all residential home fires start in the kitchen.
