Conducting a Routine Fire Safety Check

Look for obvious dangers. A “Routine Fire Safety Check” should only take a couple of minutes but it could mean the difference between Life and Death.

Walk around your house with a view to keeping your home safe and secure.

• Unplug all unnecessary electrical appliances.
• Turn off all unnecessary gas appliances.
• Make sure all candles and naked flames are extinguished.
• Place a sparkguard in front of any open fire.
• Empty all ashtrays.
• Are all escape routes completely clear of obstructions?

Close all doors to reduce the spread of fire and smoke.
