Emory Fire Safety

Home fire safety lessons from Fire Marshall Bill of what NOT to do!

Seconds matter when you need assistance from FIRST RESPONDERS during an emergency!!!

Dan Doofus teaches us about fire safety at home. Dan also illustrates the importance of everyone knowing (2) ways out of every room inside of our homes in the event of an emergency.

Let's do our part to stay home and save lives by sheltering in place during this time. It is important to take a few minutes to review Fire Safety tips with our family and loved ones in the event of an emergency at home.

Although we are all thinking about the Coronavirus pandemic these days, please remember to practice "FireSafety" while you and your family members are at home!

Do you sleep with the door opened or closed? If you sleep with the door open, watch this Youtube video: "Close Before You Doze" See the Dramatic Difference a Door Can Make (UL)... https://youtu.be/kKCeg8Q6VTg Subscribe to the "Emory Fire Safety" Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQBCyLQLr-APHwfnuplLo-Q

Did you know? Carbon monoxide (CO) is a silent, odorless, colorless and tasteless flammable gas that can kill you! CO can readily mix with air and spread evenly throughout a room. CO deprives the body of oxygen and can cause you to lose consciousness in minutes! ... Common Symptoms of CO poisoning are: Blurred vision, dizziness, confusion, weakness, dull headaches, shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting and loss of consciousness. Install a CO alarm in your home or business to detect a leak before the concentration of CO becomes deadly! CO alarms should be installed near the sleeping areas of your home and on every level of your home.
