A self-contained automatic fire extinguishing device that is located within a wall or ceiling and housed within the space between two studs or joists. This unit includes a tank or series of tanks attached via flexible pressurized joints, and held in place by an expanding bracket. This fire extinguisher maintains a constantly high pressure inside a shell of the fire extinguisher through out a shelf-life of the fire extinguisher and which can indicate the charge status of the tank via a visible indicator. A sensor is attached to the unit, which reacts to prolonged exposure to direct heat and which can extend a nozzle beyond the wall or ceiling into the living space when actuated. The self-contained automatic fire extinguishing device is hidden behind a decorative face plate which permits the passage of the sensing device and a tank fill status indicator and which actuates out of the path of the nozzle upon activation. Prior to activation, an audible warning is sounded from the device to indicate the presence of a fire and an impending activation. Once activated, the fire extinguisher contents are dispersed into the space thus significantly retarding or completely extinguishing the fire.
