Question: Cannot fine chimney fire extinguisher anywhere Looked online for ages now. The one make I did find had a fire in their factory and closed down. Ironic, I suppose! Anyone got one handy and can tell me the brand name or something?
Answer: -Chimfex was the brand I knew, but they don't seem to be around anymore. Call a local stove store and ask them who the new kid on the block is. -When all else fails, a blast with an ABC dry chem extinguisher is a good idea. Annual chimney cleaning reduces the chance of such a fire. -Chemical fire ext that you toss into the fire and it chemically smothers the fire. Box instructions make it look like a flare with a twist cap igniter. Brand name CHIMFEX made by Standard Fusee Corp, Easton MD 21601. Claimed to be used by fire departments all across America. I bought this one years ago at a wood stove store. BTW calling the local fire prevention division of your local or a nearby Metro fire department might be the most efficient method of getting an answer.
