Fire and Safety Protection is a Must For All

We are a small knit family living in the suburbs far from the reach of the city.  Being the head of the family, I had the responsibility of two little children and my wife. Some days back the recurring news of increasing fire accidents really made me wary of the future.  My mind was stormed with all kinds of insecurities for my children. That was the time I really decided to take all remedial measures and install a proper fire and safety protection at my place.

Many homes are now increasingly getting themselves familiar with fire regulations and fire risk analysis to prevent any sort of damage relating with fire accidents. Complying with fire and safety protection measures makes us less vulnerable of fire related emergencies.

A fire extinguisher and fire alarm bell was the first thing that I got installed in the house. A proper first aid kit equipped with all essential items is again a must for everyone. Sturdy storage cabinets and gas cylinder storage cages are again a thing that is of utmost importance that helps us in complying with safety regulations.

The more we take charge of the situation and take proper fire precautionary measures, the more we secure the future of our children and our family.

Homes are less vulnerable with fire protection products


Two months back, I along with my family came to reside in the house next to the woods. So it became very important that I should get my newly furnished house equipped with latest fire protection products. I and my family wanted to live near the forest but were also aware of the perils involved in this decision. The risk from the threat of wild land fire was troubling me. I was worried about the safety of my wife and children. So I called up professionals to guide and empower me and my family about preventive measures.

We cleared all excessive fuel around our house and also created a wildfire defensible zone around the house. We crafted the roofs of the house with fire-resistant material. We removed all flammable materials such as wood or shake shingles from the house, since fire is unpredictable. I purchased some fire resistant vests; and fire extinguishers which were immediately installed in every room and backyard of the house. We planted fire-resistant ornamental shrubbery around our house. If your home's fire protection scheme is not proper and effective, fire can gain the upper hand and survival during the fire can be difficult.

Fire Safety Extinguishers
Fire Extinguisher
A fire extinguisher is most important safety gear everywhere including commercial set ups, residential apartments, educational set ups and many more. As the name says, it is used to prevent fire. As a matter of fact, it is a compact device that combats small flames and prevents them from turning into a huge fire massacre.
Fire extinguishers are of different types- water, foam, and co2, wet chemical, for metal fires and fire dry powder extinguishers and more. Thus, as per specific requirements a device can be selected in order to get precise protection against fire during extreme conditions.

Fire safety training- To combat fire emergency!

I still can’t forget that day! It was same day when there was a mock fire safety drill at my college and all of us were given basic fire safety training and instructed on how to use the fire extinguisher device and the importance of personal protective equipment also knows as PPE safety gears

Anyways, the session ended, I returned home and almost forgot about the system. It was mid night around 1am when I heard a peculiar sound. Gosh, someone was shouting badly, I looked outside and saw some flames coming out from the adjacent apartment. That apartment belongs to an old lady who lives alone, I rushed towards the place. And in the meanwhile I was trying to recall all the fire safety measures instructed during the session. I picked up the fire extinguisher from the corridor as well as the PPE safety gears and managed to save the lady.
