Fire Safety Tips
Preventing fires is an important part of fire safety. In the United States, cooking is the main cause of home fires. Cigarettes are a big risk too — as they are the leading cause of fire deaths. Here are some fire safety do's and don'ts:
-
Don't leave the stove or oven unattended when they are on.
-
Don't let children use kitchen appliances unsupervised.
-
Don't smoke in bed.
-
Make sure your smoke alarms work.
-
Have fire extinguishers on every floor and in your kitchen.
-
Have an escape plan.
-
Make sure your electrical appliances and cords are in good condition.
Thank You Firefighters!
