“COMPLIANCE” EXTINGUISHERS are designed to meet and exceed state or local fire protection requirements. “Specialty” extinguishers are intended for
use on particular types of hazards. Careful attention should be paid to locating them near the specifi c hazard they are meant to protect. It is natural for a person to use the extinguisher located nearest to a fire. The most current edition of NFPA 10 should be consulted for fi re extinguisher selection, location, installation, and maintenance procedures.
