As we all know how destructive fire can be, it always pays to implement some basic fire safety measures in any home or office in case this kind of calamity happens to you. First of all, make sure that every person who lives in your dwelling or works in your office is aware of the basic fire safety precautions that you have in place, and make sure that everyone is aware of the best, quickest, and most direct way to get out of the building in case of an emergency. However, there are a few basic fire safety precautions you can employ before an evacuation becomes absolutely necessary. The most basic fire safety measures in this regard are typically considered to be your typical smoke detectors. Make sure that there are plenty of smoke detectors throughout the building, as this can alert people to a potential problem with fire before they see it. Secondly, make sure that your basic fire safety measures include installing plenty of the appropriate type of fire extinguishers throughout the building, as well. Certain fire extinguishers may be good for specific types of fires, but may be useless or worse on others. Make sure that you consider these basic fire safety measures when buying extinguishers, so that you have the best chances of nipping an incipient blaze in the bud. Finally, make sure that your basic fire safety measures include a periodic inspection of your smoke detectors and fire extinguishers at least twice a year. The extinguishers should be checked in order to make sure that their pressure gauges are where they should be, and the batteries in the smoke detectors should always be changed bi annually. Keep this routine up faithfully, and you should have a good shot at minimizing any fire damage if the situation presents itself!
