Class B fires are fires caused by flammable liquids such as grease, paint, and solvent. Class C fires are used are fires due to flammable gasses such as butane and methane.

There are two commonly used fire extinguishers in the market. Part of fire safety and precaution is
knowing which fire extinguisher would be best for the possible fires that can occur in an establishment.
Carbon Dioxide extinguishers are primarily made of pressurized non-flammable carbon dioxide gas. CO2 extinguishers are easily recognizable since they have hard horns and does not have a pressure gauge. The extinguisher also contains a flexible hose attached to its hard horns. The pressure inside the cannister of the extinguisher is so high that dry ice may form when using the extinguisher. It also contains a valve with a safety release pressure to prevent any bursting of cylinders in situations of fires involving high temperatures. CO2 fire extinguishers should only be used for Class B fires, fires caused my flammable liquid, and Class C fires, fire that were triggered by faulty electrical wiring or circuitry. It is ideal to use in multi-risk fires. The main ingredient of the extinguisher, CO2, will extinguish the flames by displacing oxygen. The pressurized CO2 gas is also cold which also acts as a coolant to the burning fuels. It is important to note that CO2 extinguishers SHOULD NOT BE USED for Class A fires since the CO2 may not be enough to displace oxygen since materials that causes Class A fires can smolder and re-ignite. Laboratories, kitchens, mechanical rooms, rooms with flammable liquids are some establishments should be equipped with a CO2 extinguisher.
