Fire extinguishers are one of the best devices to use in the event of a fire. If a person is properly trained on how to use fire extinguishers, then they are most likely to be able to put out the fire before it can spread elsewhere inside a building. In fact, in 80 percent of cases, fire extinguishers used by a properly trained person will successfully put out fires before they are out of control.  When using a fire extinguisher it is important to remember The PASS technique.
