Description
A water fire extinguisher is designed primarily for Class A fires, which involve ordinary combustible materials such as wood, paper, cardboard, cloth, and similar solid materials. Water works mainly by absorbing heat and cooling the burning material.
However, a water extinguisher is not suitable for every type of fire. Do not use it on live electrical equipment, flammable-liquid fires, or cooking-oil and grease fires. Choosing the right extinguisher for the fire risk is essential for effective fire safety.
