Default Re: Where to get fire extinguisher?

Halon is no longer used ....Data Centers use a new Clean Agent oxygen depleting gas...its called Inergen.Its much more environmentally friendly.I dont think its available in a portable extinguisher yet though. We also have an FM-200 system...same principles as Halon but friendly to the environment...if you find Halon it is recycles as it is no longer produced. Halon is an ozone depleting chemical. CO2 is an alternative too.
