We'll be getting our new 24 ft Class C (Lazy Daze 24 TK) in a few months. I know it will come with one fire extinguisher, but I've been reading some sites that recommend more. How many do you suggest? Do you put one in the engine compartment as well as in the house? Do you have one in the generator compartment? How crazy should I get?
Check with your local fire company, they will be glad to assist you and possibly give you ideas of where and what type of extinguisher to buy and where to locate them, Also some Departments preform extinguisher training for businesses and the public.
Drive your C to the local station and let them have a look, firemen are very friendly and like the challenge!
Had a couple pull into the station I was working at, they had a large diesel pusher and a child with special needs, they had passed by an RV on fire and were concerned about there particular situation, my crew looked at there motor home and came up with some simple solutions and formulated an evacuation plan, we also helped them plan a few simple fire/ exiting drills. They were VERY nice people and we shared experiences and stories with them. They learned allot as did the crew on duty that day!! Not all RVs are the same and some of the emergency exits are a challenge for some.. Be prepared and Practice!!
