Question 1

When should I use a water extinguisher?

Accepted Answer

Water extinguishers are ideal for Class A fires involving solid combustibles like wood, paper, cloth, rubber, and plastics. They are particularly effective for deep-seated fires where the cooling effect of water can penetrate embers. However, never use water on electrical fires, flammable liquid fires, or cooking oil fires.

Question 2

Why do some buildings still use water extinguishers when ABC is available?

Accepted Answer

Water extinguishers have a superior cooling effect compared to ABC powder, making them more effective for Class A fires, especially deep-seated ones. They also leave no powder residue to clean up. In buildings where the primary risk is from paper, wood, or textiles (like libraries, record rooms, and textile mills), water extinguishers are often recommended alongside ABC units.

Question 3

Is a water extinguisher safe to use?

Accepted Answer

Water extinguishers are safe on Class A fires only. They must never be used on electrical fires (risk of electrocution), flammable liquid fires (water can spread the burning liquid), or metal fires. All users should be trained on which extinguisher to use for which fire type.

Question 4

What is the price of a water fire extinguisher in Bihar?

Question 5

Can water extinguishers freeze in cold storage areas?

Accepted Answer

Yes, standard water extinguishers can freeze in sub-zero temperatures found in cold storages. For cold environments, water extinguishers with anti-freeze additive are available, or alternatively, ABC dry powder extinguishers should be used as they are unaffected by temperature.
