How ABC Dry Chemical Works:

The mono ammonium phosphate agent chemically insulates Class A fires by melting at approximately 350°F and coating surfaces to prevent re-ignition. It also smothers Class B fires by breaking the chain reaction and is electrically non-conductive for safe use on Class C electrical fires.

Safety First: Keep your fire extinguisher mounted in an accessible location and ensure all occupants know where it's located. Regular inspection and maintenance ensure your extinguisher is ready when you need it most.
