3 Elements of Fire
Fuel can be any combustible item such as, but not limited to: Wood, Paper, Clothing, Chemicals, or Gases. Removing the fuel source from a fire will extinguish it.
Oxygen is the gaseous compound of two bonded oxygen atoms. The atmosphere contains approximately 20% oxygen making this element often one of the most difficult to remove from a large fire.
Heat is one of the three elements involved in every fire. The higher the heat levels the stronger and faster a flame can spread. However, this is the easiest and targeted element in distinguishing fires.
