	Where do you live? Many locations require extinguishers to be serviced by licenced professionals. You should examine the different types of extinguishers available from a quality manufacturer. There are a few different chemical compounds offered in the dry powder extinguisher class. What are you protecting? Better questions yield better answers. __________________ Bob
