Fire Extinguisher Recall

[Chuck Kramer]

Most jurisdictions require STRs to have fire extinguishers installed/provided. I just had an inspection and the fire inspector noted that my extinguishers were all part of a recall from Kidde. I doubt I am the only one that has these so thought I would share the recall info.

"November 2, 2017 - In conjunction with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Kidde announced a recall to replace certain Kidde fire extinguishers. The replacement program was initiated because certain fire extinguishers can become clogged or require excessive force to activate, posing a risk of failure to discharge. In addition, the nozzle can detach with enough force to pose an impact hazard. The product recall involves two styles of Kidde disposable fire extinguishers: plastic handle fire extinguishers and plastic push-button fire extinguishers."
