Greetings to everyone in Histoland!  We are hoping you all can help us with
a question. 

We store our paraffin blocks in a small closet/room (5' x 10', we're
guessing) and have had a Halon fire extinguishing system in there for years.
We have apparently been cited by the PA Dept. of Health (?) for this system
not being adequate.  So, the question is, what type of system does everyone
else have?  We realize that regulations may differ from state to state, but
would appreciate any input, as our safety officer seems to be puzzled as
well.  

Thanks in advance to all the experts.  

Laura Jones
