Park Forest, IL—(ENEWSPF)— The Park Forest Fire Department reminds all residents that all homes should be equipped with at least one all-purpose dry chemical fire extinguisher. This kind of fire extinguisher is often labeled as an ABC Extinguisher which can be used to extinguish class A (ordinary combustibles like wood, cloth or paper), class B (flammable liquids such as gasoline or grease) and class C (fire involving electrical equipment such as a toaster or computer) fires. It is important for extinguishers to be properly mounted and that everyone in the house learns to properly use the extinguisher in case a fire occurs.
