Preventing is always better than reacting. This is especially true when it comes to Fire & Life Safety. Here are some easy fire prevention tips to keep your property safe.
#1: Install A Fire Alarm System
As much as we love Alicia Key’s song “Girl On Fire,” in reality, we really don’t want to see anything on fire…unless it’s a marshmallow and you’re making s’mores. So, our first fire prevention tip is to install a fire alarm system. This is the most effective way to detect a fire so it can be put out before it causes any damage.
Pro tip: No two buildings are alike, which is why it is important for you to choose a Fire & Life Safety company that can evaluate your building’s needs to design a fire alarm system that fits your budgetary requirement and is code compliant. At DynaFire, our technicians are NICET certified to offer you the best installation that is not only on time but also within budget. Not to mention our wireless monitoring system, DynaNet, is the most reliable and quickest fire alarm system on the market. Talk about a win-win combination!
#2: Fire Extinguishers Aren’t Decor Pieces
Although we totally see how the bright red of fire extinguishers can add a pop of color to any space, they’re not really a part of your building decor (not technically speaking at least). So, don’t let them just sit and look pretty. We highly recommend showing some TLC to your fire extinguishers every now and then. After all, fire extinguishers are only cool when they actually work. If you notice dust or spiderwebs on your fire extinguishers, it may be a sign that you’re way overdue for an inspection. We suggest you contact us to schedule one today!
In addition to making sure they’re in proper working condition, make sure you also know how to use a fire extinguisher if the time comes! Here’s a bonus fire prevention tip when using fire extinguishers: Pull. Aim. Squeeze. Sweep. Pull. Aim. Squeeze. Sweep. Got it? Don’t forget to save this photo for future reference. We personally think this would make a great screen saver… but that’s just us.
