💨 Abstract

A fire extinguisher is a crucial kitchen essential in South Africa, where house fires from cooking accidents, candles, and electrical issues are common. To use, break the seal, pull the pin, aim at the fire's base, squeeze the handle, and sweep. Different extinguishers combat various fire types, with wet chemical ones ideal for cooking oil fires. Place extinguishers near kitchen entrances or stoves, avoiding high or humid areas.
