Frequently Asked Questions

What fires does the 1kg ABE cover?
Class A fires (wood, paper, fabric, rubber), Class B fires (petrol, oil, paint, flammable liquids) and Class E fires (electrically energised equipment). It is not rated for Class C gas fires or Class F cooking oil fires.

Is a 1kg extinguisher enough for home and car use?
Yes — for a first-strike response to a small fire in a car, caravan or home, a 1kg ABE provides enough agent to act quickly while evacuating or calling emergency services. It is not intended to fight a large or established fire. For home use, a 2.5kg or 4.5kg ABE stored accessibly is also a practical choice.

What is the difference between nozzle type and hose type?
The nozzle type (this product) is more compact and deploys faster with one hand — ideal for vehicles, caravans and home use. The hose type has a separate discharge hose that gives you better reach and directional control. See the 1kg ABE with Hose — our premium option for home, car and caravan.

How do I mount it in my car?
The included vehicle bracket mounts under a seat, in a boot or on a wall in most vehicles. Ensure the bracket is securely fixed — loose extinguishers in vehicles are a safety risk.

How often does it need servicing?
Visual inspection every 6 months, maintenance check annually, and a full pressure test every 5 years under AS 1851.

Nozzle vs hose — which do I need?
