How Can You Prevent Fires?

Hello everyone. Today we have an important question from our audience. The question today is, How can you prevent fires? Seems like a question with a straightforward answer, but let's advance our awareness today!

 First of all, preventing a fire is something that has tremendous value, as a fire can spread in devastating ways and put your family in great risk. Some of the most common reasons for fires are: electrical sparks, space heaters, and children playing with matches.

In order to prevent fires, tools that you may need are: a CO and Smoke alarm, a combustible gas detection, a carbon monoxide alarm, a fire extinguisher, and batteries.

Here are a few tips to help minimize the probabilities of a fire:

1) Never leave your space heater unattended. Also, make sure to leave the space heater at least three feet away from flammable material and on level surface.

2) Do not leave light candles near materials that can ignite.

3) Use a fireplace screen so that sparks can be kept from entering your living room

4) Do not connect multiple appliances in the same receptacle as this can help prevent electrical fires.

5) Do not have matches and lighers near the reach of children.

6) Make sure to smoke indoors.


There are equipment that can help you reduce the risk of fire or the impact that a fire can have.

These equipment includes:

1) Installing smoke alarms and testing them every month to make sure they are running smoothly

2) fire extinguishers - It is a good a idea to consider placing the fire extinguisher in each level of the house and to make sure you learn how to use it before an emergency happens. So, make sure that you dedicate time to reading the instructions and, if possible, obtaining the necessary training as soon as possible.

3) Carbon monoxide alarms - CO can come from combustible fuel and it can be quite dangerous as it does not have odor, color or taste. Make sure to not use a gasoline-power generator or grills that use charcoal or gas indoors.

3) Home fire sprinkler system: This system can be connected to the alarm system to notify the fire department and to help you suppress flames as soon as possible.
