Fire extinguishers come in a wide range of types and sizes. A small ABC-type can be had for under $20. An ordinary pressurized-water type can be obtained for about $100. A Halon system for a computer center might be closer to $50,000 and could cost thousands of dollars to replenish each time it gets used, which is still less than the cost of repairing fire and water damage that could result from other alternatives.

All fire is composed of three things: fuel, heat, and oxygen.

All fire extinguishers work to eliminate or reduce one or more of the three.

Ones that hold water smother the air and cool whats burning.

Ones with compressed gas choke out the fire by replacing the oxygen with a non-burn'able gas like CO2 carbon dioxide.

Ones with 'powder' smother the burning stuff with the dust so that air cant get to it.

They are all marked ABC depending on what the fuel is and how dangerous the fire could be if you put the wrong stuff on it.

Some fire extinguishers are designed to put out a lot of fires at once and are built into the structure. Like the ones you see at a gas station by the pumps.
