Weight: 3.0 lb
Important note
This model is B:C rated. That means it’s designed for liquid and energized electrical fires. It’s not positioned as an “all fires” unit the way an A:B:C extinguisher would be. For typical “wood/paper” fires, many people also keep an A:B:C unit elsewhere in the home.
Best for
Electrical risks: outlets, power bars, appliances, panels (when energized)
Liquid risks: fuels/solvents/grease-type liquid scenarios (garage, workshop areas)
Q: What does 5-B:C mean?
A: It’s a ULC fire rating indicating capability on Class B (flammable liquid) and Class C (energized electrical) fires, with “5” denoting the relative Class B effectiveness level.
Q: What’s the extinguishing agent?
A: Sodium bicarbonate (Regular Dry Chemical).
Q: Where should I keep it at home?
A: Near higher-risk areas like the garage, utility room, workshop, near electrical equipment, and anywhere flammable liquids might be present—while keeping it accessible and not blocked.
What I like
ULC-rated 5-B:C: Covers liquid (Class B) and electrical (Class C) fire scenarios.
Regular Dry Chemical (sodium bicarbonate): A proven agent for quick knockdown on B and C type fires.
Simple, common-sense home use: Great to keep near areas where electrical devices and liquids are present (garage, utility room, near panels, workshop, etc.).
