Cannot fine chimney fire extinguisher anywhere
Looked online for ages now. The one make I did find had a fire in their
factory and closed down. Ironic, I suppose! Anyone got one handy and can tell me the brand name or something? Thanks Dean |

Chimfex was the brand I knew, but they don't seem to be around anymore. Call a local stove store and ask them who the new kid on the block is. R |

When all else fails, a blast with an ABC dry chem extinguisher is a good
idea. Annual chimney cleaning reduces the chance of such a fire. -- Christopher A. Young Do good work. It's longer in the short run but shorter in the long run. .. ..

I would expect the same type of thing would be over grills / stoves in commercial kitchens. AMUN |

Anyone got one handy and can tell me the brand name or something? Thanks Dean Chemical fire ext that you toss into the fire and it chemically smothers the fire. Box instructions make it look like a flare with a twist cap igniter. Brand name CHIMFEX made by Standard Fusee Corp, Easton MD 21601. Claimed to be used by fire departments all across America. I bought this one years ago at a wood stove store. BTW calling the local fire prevention division of your local or a nearby Metro fire department might be the most efficient method of getting an answer. -- Colbyt One picture can be worth a 1000 words.
