What are the 4 ways to extinguish a fire?
The four primary ways to extinguish a fire are by removing one or more elements of the fire triangle: heat, fuel, and oxygen. This can be achieved through cooling (using water or fire extinguishers), smothering (covering the fire to cut off oxygen), starving (removing fuel sources), or interrupting the chemical reaction (using fire retardants). Each method targets different aspects of the fire to effectively stop it from burning.
What are chemical fire extinguishers design to do?
Chemical fire extinguishers are designed to suppress or extinguish fires by using various chemical agents that interrupt the combustion process. They can be effective against different types of fires, depending on their specific chemical composition, which may include dry chemicals, foam, or wet agents. These extinguishers work by cooling the flames, suffocating the fire, or chemically disrupting the reaction that sustains combustion. Proper selection and use of the appropriate type of chemical extinguisher are crucial for effective fire control.

Do you use CO2 to extinguish Liquid Fire?
