Fire Extinguisher Training Classes

Fire Extinguisher Training – Fire Extinguisher classes offered to the community, teach participants how to extinguish small fires using an extinguisher. Participants will watch a ten-minute video on the basics of using an extinguisher and participate in a short discussion and review of the important points. Following the discussion, participants are taken outside where they get hands-on extinguishment of a controlled liquid fuel fire. Facilities should plan to use their own extinguishers and to have them serviced immediately following the class. |
