Yeah, and yeah because I do bake sometimes ;)
-
yes, it is under my sink in the kitchen. I can say I am proficient in the use of a fire extinguisher after years of mandatory refresher classes on just that subject.
-
Yes and yes. pass. . .pull, aim, squeeze and sweep.
-
i know how to use one, we just don't have one.
-
Yes x 2. :)
-
My parents keep one, but I haven't used it before so "yes" "no"
-
yes but no
-
yes and it is an A,B,C extinguisher...do you know what that stands for? I have been through fire fighters schooling when I served in the service.
-
yes and yes, I used a big one once at a fire in a hay shed. It was not of much use. It seems to me that it is good to extinguish a fire that started out just now. Not for one that burns rather longer.
-
I own one and I know how to use it. When the fire monster shows up, you throw it at it, right?
-
Yes one in the house and one in the car. Yes I know how to use them.
-
yes and yes.
-
Yes we do, one for the home and one for the car and another for the RV. We actually used an old one that needed refilling to make sure we knew how to use it and we did use one in our car for someone else's car fire.

Yes and yes. But now that you've brought it up, it's been a long time since I've checked the expiration date! Sheesh. We should all be given special "daily living" classes waaaaaay back when in high school .. so that throughout all the decades of adult life, all these maintenance issues and timelines are built in habits. Does it count that I just this week chenged the batteries in one of my smoke detectors? LOL I do regular checks. Two came up ok. One was an "uh oh", so needed new batteries. Now cross your fingers about that fire extinguisher date, ok? LOL
-
Yes. I have three. I know how to use them. I run a farm and I must take precautions, you see. But I have used them only when the initial demonstrations were given to me when I bought them first. Now all that happens is that the company guy comes once every 6 months, checks them all and gives me a bill.

I had one and it was expired.I should get a new one!Right now I have a huge box of baking soda down stairs in front of the furnace.If the fire gets outta control we just throw it on it.
-
For the house and car. Yes, I know how to use it. Haven't had to yet though :)
-
yes and yes
-
I don't own one but I know how to use them. I once made the mistake of trying to put out a gas fire with water. Figured I should prolly at least learn after that.
-
No, and no. Though I can figure things out pretty fast.
-
LOL, yes and yes. My dad use to own a fire extinguisher company, so I learned ALL about them when I was little :)
-
YES
