Description

This easy to read presentation card covers the basics of fire extinguishers in a clear and concise manner. An unwanted fire occurs every 10 seconds. These essential tools provide the opportunity to get the upper hand on a fire before it gets out of control. Knowing how to properly use an extinguisher can prevent property damage and save lives.

The placement of extinguishers plays a part in their effectiveness. They need to be on every level of the home and close to where there is the greatest risk for a fire, like in the kitchen or garage. They need to be easily accessible but away from heat sources. Placing them near the exits of a room ensures that if a fire become out of control, the individual fighting it will still be able to escape.

There are several types of extinguishers, each suitable for a different kind of fire.

Class A is used for fires in common combustible materials like wood, paper, and cloth. Fire involving flammable liquids, like gasoline or grease, require a Class B extinguisher. Class C are appropriate for electrical fires. There are also multi-purpose extinguishers, labeled as A-B-C or B-C, that are appropriate for two or more fire types. Class D are found in laboratories or factories for fires involving flammable metals. Fires involving fats or oils in cooking appliances require a Class K extinguisher.

When purchasing an extinguisher, take into consideration: its size, provided instructions, and storability. Individuals need to be able to easily pick up and move the fire extinguisher. Its instructions should be straightforward and clear. And an individual must be able to secure the extinguisher in a removed, but accessible location.

The final section of the card covers using extinguishers. For those who have never used one, local fire departments frequently offer training programs.

Individuals can choose to fight the fire if:

  • The fire is small and contained.
  • The building has been evacuated and the fire department called.
  • The exits are still accessible.

However, individuals should not fight the fire if:

  • The fire has resulted in a lot of heat or smoke.
  • There’s the chance of getting trapped in the building.
  • Their instincts tell them to get out of the building.

The card’s final message is extremely important for anyone who may have to make the choice to fight a fire: “When in Doubt – Just Get Out!”

Our Presentation Display is another great educational tool.
