Kidde just announced a recall of 34 mil fire extinguishers for home, boat, and PWC models. They are offering free replacement for affected models.

So far the one in our kitchen and the one in my boat look to be included.

Check Kidde website for details...

Check your extinguisher if it has a guage, if it reads in the red and you get checked it is as good as not having one.

This is solid advice! I didn't even think to post about the Kidde recall and I do fire protection for a living... still learning from this darn sport!

Thanks for the post on the fire extinguisher recall. Two replacements on the way to me from Kidde under the recall, one in the boat was a white pushbutton model and one in the kitchen was a red squeeze handle model. Website is www.kidde.com and click on the fire extinguisher safety recall, fill out a form with your info, model and serial number. Easy to use recall process.
