Q: how long will hold a charge?
A: The description says "...backed by 10-year limited warranty"
submitted byPenguins - 6 years agoA: Thank you for reaching out. The charge would be determined by how often the device is used. When it is time to recharge your device, hire a trained professional to make sure your extinguisher is safe and gets recharged with the correct chemical extinguishing agent.
submitted byFirstAlertProductExpert - 4 years agoBrand expertA: The description says, "... rechargeable by certified professionals after use." Which means if used, take it to your local fire/ safety store for recharging. The indicator dial should be checked periodically (monthly or at least quarterly) and the unit should be turned upside down so the powder doesn't compact as it settles, rendering it useless.

Q: Do you have to cut the white plastic safety ring or does it come off when you pull the pin?
A: None of the photos on this model show a plastic ring, but it should work after pulling the pin and squeezing the trigger. Anything else that may be in the way of using it should break off easily. A visual inspection can be done at the store or soon after purchase, to check for obvious defects.
submitted bymom - 6 years agoA: Thank you for reaching out. When operating a fire extinguisher, remember the word PASS: Pull the pin. Hold the extinguisher with the nozzle pointing away from you and release the locking mechanism. Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire. Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly. Sweep the nozzle from side-to-side.

Q: If this fire extinguisher is used on a stainless steel electricity ignited closed burner gas stovetop would the powder from the fire extinguisher damage the stove top or closed burners?
A: Thank you for your question. It is very important to remove the powder from electrical equipment after a fire. If the powder gets wet, it can conduct electricity. If you have any questions about cleaning appliances that the agent has come into contact with, please contact the appliance manufacturer.
