Essential Fire Safety Tips
Install smoke alarms on every level of your home and test them monthly. Replace batteries at least once a year.
Create and practice a family fire escape plan. Know at least two ways out of every room and have a designated meeting spot outside.
Keep flammable items away from the stove, and never leave cooking unattended. Always turn off the burner when you leave the kitchen.
Fire Prevention at Home
Keep a fire extinguisher in the kitchen and learn how to use it properly.
Ensure all electrical appliances are in good working order and do not overload circuits.
Store flammable liquids like gasoline, paint, and cleaning agents in approved containers and away from heat sources.
