• Family Escape Plan: According to National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) there often is very
little time between the detection of a re and the
time it becomes deadly. This interval can be as
little as one or two minutes. Planning and practicing
for re conditions with a focus on rapid exit from
the residence are important. Drills should be held
so that all family members know the action to be
taken.
• The use of alcohol or drugs may also impair one's
ability to hear the smoke alarm. For maximum
protection, a smoke alarm should be installed in
each sleeping area on every level of a home.
• Smoke alarms must be tested regularly to make
sure the batteries and the alarm circuit are in good
operating condition.
•
Make a home escape plan. Draw a map of your home
showing all doors and windows. Discuss the plan with
everyone in your home.
• Know at least two ways out of every room, if possible.
Make sure all doors and windows leading outside
open easily.
• Practice using different ways out.
Safety Tips:
• If the alarm is located outside the sleeping room or on
a different oor, it may not wake up a sound sleeper.
• Practice your home re drill at night and during the
day with everyone in your home, twice a year.
