There are different types of fire extinguishers, and the most commonly known ones are powder fire extinguishers and reinforced liquid fire extinguishers.

About residential fire alarms
Residential fire alarms are very dangerous because they may not detect fires due to the life of electronic parts and dead batteries when they get old.
Replace every 10 years.
To find out when the alarm was installed, check the "installation date" entered when the fire alarm was installed, or the "manufacturing year" printed on the main unit.
