If the extinguisher's in a cabinet exposed to the elements it's good practice to install the wall hook onto the back wall of the cabinet so the bottom of the cylinder is elevated above any puddles of water that make their way into the cabinet. Not critical indoors but really makes a difference when avoiding extinguisher corrosion outdoors.
I have 2 10 pounds CO2 fire extinguishers. One next to my seat, One next to the entrance. If you were me, any recommendations? My flat is about 400 square feet. Thanks!
@@michaelkai-yiptsang that’s great that you have Co2 extinguishers, but Co2 can only put out BC class fires and can’t put out A class fires (ordinary combustibles). I would for sure recommend at least 2 10lb. ABC fire extinguishers. Also if you end up getting the two ABC 10 pounders I would recommend getting them from a local fire extinguisher service, not big box/hardware stores.
@@FireExtinguisherEnthusiast I had a 20 pound dry powder before, but I used it for a fire extinguisher demonstration at school. It seems that it is a good idea to refill it and safeguard my home? Is it equivalent to 2 10 pounders? Moreover, I inclined to use CO2 more because I think it is more powerful when shooting fires.
@@FireExtinguisherEnthusiast how about my co2 fire extinguishers then? remain the same position? By the way, do you have facebook or others? hope to learn more from you.
@@michaelkai-yiptsang the Co2 extinguishers are excellent and they should for sure remain. And I do not have facebook or anything like that, but you are always welcome to ask questions here on my channel and I will always answer them!
