Detailed explanation-1: -Never try to extinguish a grease fire with water. Throwing water on the fire can cause burning grease to splash, which can make the fire spread and potentially harm bystanders. It is dangerous to move a pan or pot of burning oil for the same reasons.
Detailed explanation-2: -DO NOT douse the grease fire with water, or milk, etc… If you do, it will explode into a fireball. Pouring water can cause the oil to splash and spread the fire. The vaporizing water can also carry grease particles in it, also spreading the fire.
Detailed explanation-3: -What happens if you add water to a grease fire? Even a small amount of water dropped into a pan or deep fryer filled with burning oil will sink to the bottom, become superheated and erupt. According to the Scientific American, the reason oils do not mix with water is related to their properties.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cooking oil fires Never use water to extinguish a cooking oil fire-it will make the fire flare and spread. Put a tight-fitting lid on the pot or slide a cookie sheet over it to smother the flames. Turn off the overhead fan to keep the flames from spreading.
Detailed explanation-5: -Turn off the burner. Keep the pan in place. If you have a fire, your first instinct might be to move the pan. Place a lid over the pan. Let the lid smother the fire. If the fire does not go out, get everyone out of the house and call 911 from outside. 07-Dec-2021
