Fire Department statistics show
that some eighty per cent, of all
fires are extinguished by chemical
apparatus.
Nearly all fires are discovered
at the start and are readily put
out if once available.
A stream is thrown to a distance
of about fifty feet, carrying a
gas.
which excludes the oxygen and
prevents combustion.
A fire cannot live if a small per
cent, of carbonic acid gas is in the
air.
It is forty times as efficient as
water and will extinguish fires of oil,
gasoline, etc., which water only
spreads.
