What happens when you open a door to a heated room into an unheated room?

When you open a door to a heated room (no fire), the heat should flow into the unheated room in an attempt to reach equilibrium. If there's fire in the closed room, the flames will grow when you open the door because there's more oxygen in the room you're in (and by the way, that's something you should never do in a fire... when your house is on fire, always check the door to see if it's warm before you open it).

Why must you not hold a door open with a fire extinguisher?

If it's a fire or smoke door, it must be able to close automatically to carry out its design function during a fire. If the door is propped open with ANYTHING, the fire and smoke may spread uncontrollably and cause severe injury and fire spread. Also, it is a code violation to set a fire extinguisher on the floor, unless it is on wheels. Also, it is a code violation to place any obstacle within the clear width of any escape doorway. Also, if the fire extinguisher is being used to prop open a door, then it is not where it should be when it may be needed. The proper location may have been designed specifically to fulfill a distance requirement. If caught by a fire inspector, this single act could result in four or more violations.

Why should fire doors never be propped open?

Fire doors should never be propped open (with a fire extinguisher or anything else) because it will defeat the purpose of having fire and smoke separation during a fire. A self-closing fire door must be allowed to function properly for safety of the occupants who may need the extra time to safely escape through other exit doors. It would be a fire-code violation to prop open a fire door, which could result in fines or other discipline.
