Prevent Fire: Be Informed, Get Involved!

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

Prevent Fire: Be Informed, Get Involved! is the theme of the Fire Prevention Month for this year.

Fire Prevention Month

Fire Prevention Month is observed every year per Presidential Proclamation No. 115-A aimed at raising the level of awareness of the public of the ways to prevent fires and save lives and properties.

Here are some simple tips that could go a long way in helping with fire prevention (source: PIA):

  • Candles and Lamps
    • Do not set the lamp too close to the curtain; never read in bed by candle or lamp
    • Do not leave a burning candle unattended
  • Vehicular fires
    • Do not smoke or use an open flame while refueling and when inspecting the gas tank, the radiator or the battery;
    • Install a portable fire extinguisher in your vehicles
    • Check wiring insulation frequently to avoid short circuit
  • Cigarettes and Matches
    • Never smoke in bed (better yet, don’t smoke at all… remember! smoking is dangerous to your health!)
    • But if you still like to smoke… Do not allow cigar and cigarette butts into the waste basket.
    • Always have ashtray available in your home
    • Crush your cigarette thoroughly before discarding them
    • Strictly obey “No Smoking” signs
    • Keep matches and lighter away from the reach of children.
  • Electrical Equipments and Appliance
    • Unplug electrical appliance after use
    • Avoid octopus connections
    • Don’t replace a blown fuse with tin foil, wire or any other metal to short circuit the current. Use only approved standard fuse
    • Don’t leave electric iron with the current on
    • Never let electrical cords trail across floors or under rugs
    • Don’t hang electrical wiring cover pipes, nails, etc.
    • Avoid the use of illegal electrical connections.
  • When your clothes catch fire
    1. Do not run. Running fans the flame.
    2. Drop to the ground
    3. Roll over and put out the flame while covering your face with your hands for protection
    4. The victim can be helped by covering with any heavy woolen cloth to smother the flame.

It is always good to know the phone number of the fire station nearest you.

In case of a fire, do not to panic, stay calm but act quickly.

Do you have some other fire prevention tips you’d like to share with us?
