First Alert KITCHEN5 Kitchen Fire Extinguisher 5-B:C

Product Description

The FIRST ALERT KITCHEN5 is a compact, dry chemical fire extinguisher rated 5-B:C and designed for residential kitchen environments. It uses sodium bicarbonate as its extinguishing agent, making it effective against grease, cooking oil, solvent, and electrical fires. The unit ships with a decorator wall holder for permanent mounting near the cooking area, keeping it accessible without taking up counter space. A push-to-test pressure button allows quick verification that the extinguisher is charged and ready for use. The canister is DOT approved and disposable after discharge.

This extinguisher is suited for residential kitchens, small commercial break rooms, or any space where grease and electrical fire hazards are present. Its compact form factor fits tight wall spaces near ranges and cooktops. Installation requires no special tools beyond a standard wall anchor and screw for the included holder. The 5-B:C rating covers Class B flammable liquid fires and Class C energized electrical equipment fires, which are the two most common fire classes encountered in kitchen settings.

Installation Notes

Mount using the included decorator wall holder at a location that is visible and accessible, typically near an exit path and away from direct heat sources such as the range. Power down or de-energize any equipment in the immediate area before servicing the mounting location. Local fire codes and NFPA 10 guidelines govern extinguisher placement height and clearance requirements — consult the authority having jurisdiction for compliance. This unit is disposable and should be replaced rather than recharged after any discharge.
