- Fire Extinguisher, circa 1959 - Pressurized fire extinguishers, which propel fire-suppressing chemicals with compressed gas, have been in use since the mid-19th century. Improved designs used less toxic chemicals, or specific chemicals that were most effective against certain types of fires. In all cases, a fire extinguisher was intended to stop or slow a small fire before it grew into something more dangerous.
