Question 1

How long does it take to receive this? I have a fire I need to extinguish ASAP.

Accepted Answer

If I didn't just survive a fire I might not find this so offensive, also I am a volunteer fire gal, these little things can save lives, or at least quell the fire long enough to get life out, I know what fire can do, it's not pretty!!  Every home should have smoke alarms,( saved my life) and a few of these, take the time to know how to use them, PASS- Pull, Aim Squeeze, Sweep at base of fire...don't mean to get on your case, but think about those who have lost loved ones to fire.

Question 4

Do these fire extinguishers have expiration dates?

Accepted Answer

From May 2010 Consumer Reports: "No matter which fire extinguisher you buy, make sure its pressure indicator shows "full" and that it was manufactured within the last year. The National Fire Protection Association recommends that dry chemical extinguishers that are intended to be discarded after use should be disposed of 12 years after the date of manufacture." My fire extinguisher has the date of manufacture stamped on the bottom.
