Most people can tell you what a fire extinguisher looks like and what purpose it serves, but few have ever had hands-on experience.  Because fire extinguishers can be very successful in extinguishing household fires, this hour-long presentation combines video, lecture and hands-on instruction.  The presentation consists of a discussion on the different types of fire extinguishers, with video examples of the proper ways extinguishers should be used.  Classes in fire extinguisher operation provide hands-on instruction, and participants can extinguish a small fire under close supervision of firefighters.

 

This class is popular with businesses that are required to meet certain safety and training regulations for employees. There is no charge for this class. Extinguishers are donated by Advanced Fire Systems.  COST $FREE

 

All Saturday classes are held at the Bonita Springs Fire Station Four, 27701 Bonita Grande Blvd.
Classes can be arranged at outside locations for groups of at least six students.
