To educate the public about the importance of balanced fire protection, a concept that uses multiple safeguards to save lives and protect property, Fire Equipment Manufacturers' Association released a fire extinguisher training video on YouTube. The 2-minute video guides viewers through the process of assessing a potential fire situation and using a portable fire extinguisher in an emergency.rn"The foremost goal of the video is to equip the public with the basic knowledge of how to address a fire safety situation and properly use a portable fire extinguisher," says Fred Goodnight, portable division chair of the association. "With the popularity and vast accessibility of social media such as YouTube, this video has the potential to reach masses of people with an essential life- and property-saving safety message."
