Extinguishers

Fire extinguishers are crucial for home safety. By selecting the right type, placing them strategically, maintaining them regularly, and ensuring everyone knows how to use them, homeowners can significantly mitigate the risk of fire-related damage and injury. Kitchen placement is important because they are the most common location for house fires, while garage placement is important because they often contain flammable materials and equipment.
