Fire Code and Certified Specialist Referral

Hi Everyone,

I recently had an inspection done from my insurance company on our 6 unit multifamily building located in Elmwood Park and they want us to put in 2 fire extinguishers, but provided very little guidelines for the rating and class of the extinguisher. From what I read off the Chicago fire code and NFPA standards, I believe I picked up the right ones but just want to confirm...does a 4 lb 2A:10BC rated extinguisher work? 

Also, these need to be inspected by a certified specialist and tagged. Does anyone have a good referral? I appreciate the help and your time! 

Thanks,

Sam
