We have fire extinguishers in the kitchen, the utility room, my studio, the garage and one in each vehicle. I married a volunteer fireman— we are all about safety.
after having an iron catch fire 10 years ago ( it was burning inside - after unplugging it it got hotter and started smoking; we smelled it first- took it outside & dropped it in a snow bank) we decided that room should have an extinguisher too.
