Fire Safe

Steps Of How To Use A Fire Extinguisher Knowing the steps of how to use a fire extinguisher before a fire occurs could be the difference between successfully extinguishing the fire or the fire getting out of control. Fire extinguishers should only be used in the following circumstances: Once evacuation has been initiated. When the fire service has been called. When it is safe to do so considering the size and location of the fire. Access to the fire is unrestricted, and a safe retreat is possible at all times.

Fire is a chemical reaction which needs three things to be present so it can happen:  OXYGEN + HEAT + FUEL = FIRE If one of these is not present, the fire cannot start. If one of these were taken from a fire, it would go out. But how does this all work? The parts of the fire triangle are these: Heat, Fuel and Oxygen. These three parts are required for a fire to be present, so to secure against or put out a current fire we should eliminate a minimum of one of the aspects. Various extinguisher types are created to get rid of several of those components to put out a fire. As an example, water removes heat and foam can stop oxygen from getting in touch with fire by covering it similar to a blanket. To cut out the fuel source might be more difficult.
