Fire Prevention And Safety Tips You Must Live By


People always say that an ounce of prevention is way much better than a pound of cure. It's really true when it comes to fire - it's so destructive that in a blink of an eye it could take away all your properties, and even lives. So in order to protect yourself and family, here are prevention tips you should practice at home.



I. At Home



1. A burning lamp or candle should be placed away from the curtains and should be placed in a spot where the wind, pets and little children could not topple it. Never leave it unattended or else the fire might spread to the curtains. Put it out before sleeping.



2. Keep matches and lighters away from children's reach.



3. Flammable objects like gasoline and alcohol must be stored in a safe place. Cover flammable containers lightly.



4. Clean your roof and attic regularly. Get rid of leaves, wood shavings and other rubbish that could start fire.



5. When burning all the rubbish, make sure the fire is totally put out, and no smoe could be seen. Extinguish all smoldering coals.



6. Never, ever smoke in bed. After smoking, make sure the flame is out completely, without any presence of smoke.



7. Before retiring at night or leaving the house, inspect all the appliances and check if they're already turned off. Check all the wires, cables and tanks.



8. Educate your children on what to do in case of fire.



9. Always place your door keys somewhere near the door, or on the door itslef. Make sure every one in the family knows where the keys are. Better yet, make sure they have duplicates of it, so in case of fire, you'll be able to make your way out. Never mix the door keys with other keys.



II. In The Kitchen



1. When cooking, don't leave the stove unattended. Keep little children and flammable objects away from it.



2. Check your kitchen regularly for gas/oil leaks.



3. Avoid wearing loose clothes when cooking as it might catch fire.



4. Always use potholders when holding something hot, like frying pans or kettles.



5. Don't reach over a burning stove. You might get burned or your clothes might catch fire.



III. What To Do In Case Of Fire



When your clothes catch fire, don't panic. Immediately fall to the ground and roll to put out the fire. Running will only make the fire spread to other areas or parts of your clothes and will therefore make it intense. If this is not possible, use a blanket or towel.



When you're in a hotel, don't forget to check the fire exit's location. You'll never when know the unexpected occurs.



Cover your nose and mouth with a wet towel or hanky and crawl your way out if your room is filled with smoke.



Remember, it is always safer to know what you should do to keep accidents from happening, and know how to respond to the situation when it's there, than to panic due to ignorance. Take care!

First Alert Battery Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide/Smoke Alarm #SC05CN

First Alert Battery Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide/Smoke Alarm #SC05CN
Carbon monoxide (CO) is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America, yet many people don't know they are suffering from CO poisoning until its too late. Since symptoms of CO poisoning are like the flu, you might not even know you're in danger at first. That's why a carbon monoxide alarm is an excellent way to protect your family. It can detect the CO you can't see, smell or taste in the air.

The First Alert SCO5CN carbon monoxide and smoke alarm uses an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor-the most accurate technology available. The alarm uses photoelectric smoke sensing technology which is environmentally friendlier and which reduces nuisance alarms, making it ideal for cooking areas. It is also great for sensing slow smoldering fires quickly. The permanent sensors last the lifetime of the alarm. The test/silence button both silences a non-threatening alarm or low battery warning and allows you to test the unit's functionality. The alarm uses different 85-decibel horns and lights depending on whether it's alerting you to smoke or carbon monoxide. A low battery signal alerts you to replace the battery and end-of-life alarm of three chirps alerts you to replace the unit. Two AA batteries are included. 5-year limited warranty. UL listed. Not available for sale in Massachusetts.--Bree Norlander

SAS Urban Survival Handbook: How to Protect Yourself Against Terrorism, Natural Disasters, Fires, Home Invasions, and Everyday Health and Safety Hazards

SAS Urban Survival Handbook: How to Protect Yourself Against Terrorism, Natural Disasters, Fires, Home Invasions, and Everyday Health and Safety Hazards
A necessary and effective manual of urban survival techniques, a companion to the SAS Survival Handbook (1,000,000 copies sold).

John "Lofty" Wiseman is the author of the bestselling SAS Survival Handbook, the definitive guide to survival in the wild from Britain's Special Air Service. Now he has compiled a complete guide to survival in the urban jungle. Every year in America there are thousands of fatal accidents in the home—more than on the roads, and many more than in the great outdoors. Fire, electricity, water, gas, sharp knives, poisons, chemicals—these valuable tools can quickly become dangerous weapons when not treated with proper respect and understanding. Add to these the risks of travel, terrorism, muggings, rape, tsunamis, and earthquakes. We are constantly reminded that the world is a dangerous place. Wiseman shows readers how to think realistically and practically about these perils in order to avoid them, whether they are at home, on the street, in school, or in transit. From self-defense techniques to home security systems to coping with natural disasters, this book will teach readers to recognize risks, make quick decisions, and live confidently in the modern urban world. 100 color illustrations.
