The 1kg car fire extinguisher is a deceptive title as, filled with multi-purpose powder, it fights any fire and is suitable for most uses. Supplied with a cradle - as standard - to prevent it sliding around in the boot in the car, the 1kg powder fire extinguisher is part of the renowned FireChief range from Fire Depot.
Suitable for car, van, caravan, home, truck cabs, boats
The updated British Standard 5306-8:2012 Selection and positioning of portable fire extinguishers – Code of Practice states as follows.
"5.4.3 Use of powder extinguishers The discharge of a powder extinguisher within buildings can cause a sudden reduction of visibility and can also impair breathing, which could temporarily jeopardize escape, rescue or other emergency action. For this reason, powder extinguishers should generally not be specified for use indoors, unless mitigated by a health and safety risk assessment." If you are not sure what this means, please contact us any time or see our Fire Safety Survey service. Responsible extinguisher service technicians (including ours) may refuse to certify a powder extinguisher that is not suitable for the location.
Types of fire include Class A (wood, paper, cloth, etc), B (flammable liquids), C (gas - but never put out a gas fire if the gas cannot then be turned off) and safe around live electrical equipment
Anticipated lifespan with indoor use and proper maintenance - up to 10 years
