tinguishers are installed and
family members learn how to
operate them, say Extension
home management specialists at
Pennsylvania State University.
Home fire extinguishers can
control a small fire or delay the
development of a large one until
help arrives.
Three types of fires are of
concern to families. Class A fires

begin in wood, paper, textiles,
grass, trash and similar

purpose dry chemical ex
tinguishers can be used on all
classes of fires. However, The
Extension specialists suggest the
multi-purpose variety may work
best in the home
The multi-purpose dry
chemical variety controls blazes
up to 12-feet away. The chemical
will not damage equipment or
food and is not affected by cold,
moisture or normal air tem
peratures. The extinguisher can
be installed in any area of the
home.
When selecting a fire ex
tinguisher, the specialists
recommend that vou consider the
type and size of fires
most likely to occur. Buying an
extinguisher of the size all
members in your family can
handle is also important.
