The fire extinguisher in my garage is almost 20 years old now and the pressure gauge is right at the edge of the red zone. That means it’s time to order a new one!

Decided to get two because it seems like a good idea to have one out by the grill (and they’re a better deal that way) 👍

Very excited because this means I get to play teach the kids how to properly use a fire extinguisher with the old one! Been a while since we used the fire pit out back…

    Step 1: light a fire
    Step 2: place fire extinguisher in the middle of the fire.
    Step 3: retreat a safe distance.

    When you hear the bang, the fire should be extinguished.

    Or scattered.

      I’m completely sure that this would absolutely sort out the overheating problem, unless it makes it even worse.
