Hello everyone
Could you tell me where I might be able to buy a couple of fire extinguishers for our house. We have had the original ones rather a long time and, although they have never been used, I think they should be replaced. Many thanks!

Good question. I've never seen any other than the minis in the usual DIY outlets.
You could of course try Amazon:

Or there's a specialist supplier at Torrevieja:
And yellow pages throws up a few others:

If I could add to the helpful advice already provided... When choosing a fire extinguisher please remember that there are 2 intentions for its use.
One reason is to assist you in controlling small fires but typically, the primary reason for purchase is to assist you in exiting the property in an emergency. I am making an assumption, which is wrong of me, but that you are not a firefighter nor trained in the correct use of a fire extinguisher? Of course you should always call the emergency services (Cuerpo de Bomberos) for anything larger than a small fire!
I believe the emergency numbers are 112 or 080? (I may stand corrected on that)
There are four different types of fire extinguishers :
You should consider the types of fire you are concerned about when choosing an extinguisher. Multipurpose extinguishers can be used on different types of fires and will be labelled with more than one class, like A-B, B-C or A-B-C.
Hope it helps
