Fire Extinguisher introduction NERT

During NERT classes, you will learn how to fight fire tactically and more effectively.
This video shows some of the basic ideas of deciding IF you should attempt to fight a fire, plus the correct use of a fire extinguisher.
During the free NERT training, you will actually put out a small fire as part of your final class.

Watching the video will give you some ideas to get started, but it is not a replacement for attending the classes.

@bmhfd719 That's what your backup person is for, but, yes, at very least check the dial on the extinguisher to make sure it is charged before you go in.
