Fire extinguishers - Your first line of defense

Fire extinguishers. You have them. You get them inspected. At home, you have had that same one under your kitchen sink since you bought your home 18 years ago. Never had to use it though. 

But... What if you did. Would you know what to do? Have you ever thought about it? Other than the one under your sink; do you even know where the fire extinguishers, that may help get you out of a building alive, are located in your office...or your warehouse....or your store?

When you grab it off of the wall....will it work? What do you do now? "Holy cow, I never thought I would need to do this....what do I do???? What do I do???? Why isn't this thing working??? Wow that fire is getting so big.....and so hot!!!! Someone help!!!!"

That's not the time that you want to start thinking about what to do if there is a fire.

Fire extinguishers just might save your life one day. 

Make sure they are inspected. 

Make sure that they are accessible. 

Make sure you know where they are.

Make sure that you know how to use them. 

Whether at home, work, or play.....
