I sourced a fire extinguisher and refill agreement from a very local fire safety place which is really convenient. I'm just on my first refill.
From what I've read a fire extinguisher is a 'bottom feeder' for want of a better description. I've found leaving it connected all the time it sometimes seems to 'spit' and the regulators and release valves go a bit mad before it calms down.
I'm thinking what's happening is the CO2 is ejecting in liquid form and expanding in the tube and or hitting the prv and wasting CO2.
I wondered if anyone else has this situation and if turning the fire extinguisher upside down or lowering it beneath the regulator board might help? At the moment its outlet is a couple of inches above the board.
