A vivid CO2 fire extinguisher perfect for dousing flames in construction sites this fire extinguisher can be used on Class B fires and Class E fires. Class B fires are found in areas that consist of flammable liquids, gasses, oil, solvents, tar and oil-based lacquers and paint. Class E fires are fires caused by electricity or electrical equipment. Both types of fires can be found on construction sites and the CO2 fire extinguisher ensures the fires are cleared in rapid succession.
