Fire safety and escape is extremely important for all
home owners. Are you new to owning your own home? Here are a few great tips to
get you and your family started with a plan of action during times of
emergency.
·
Share Knowledge – Keep everyone in your family
“in the loop” when it comes to fire safety. Have a meeting place decided, so
that your family can reunite after an emergency. Also, let family members know
where the ResQLadder® is located to decrease panic during a fire.
·
Practice – Families should have a refresher on
the plan every month to keep the whole family on the same page. Consider
practicing with your family to escape the house through 2 exits in a certain
amount of time. This will increase urgency and help your family feel prepared
in case of a crisis.
·
Check Smoke Alarms Regularly – Smoke alarms
should be placed in every living and sleeping area of the home. Also, there
should be at least one smoke alarm on each floor of your home. In case of fire,
store an emergency
escape ladder in second and third story rooms.
