Fire Prevention

Fire Prevention Week

Have 2 Ways Out

Smoke alarms should be installed in every sleeping room, outside each separate sleeping area, and on every level of the home, including the basement. Larger homes may require additional smoke alarms to provide a minimum level of protection.

Test smoke alarms at least once a month using the test button.

Make sure everyone in the home understands the warning of the smoke alarm and knows how to respond.

Smoke alarms with non-replaceable (long-life) batteries are designed to remain effective for up to 10 years. If the alarm chirps, warning that the battery is low, replace the entire smoke alarm right away. For smoke alarms with any other type of battery, replace batteries at least once a year. If that alarm chirps, replace only the battery.

Make a home escape plan. Have your children help you design the escape plan. Try to make sure that you have two ways out of every room. Once drawn out make sure everyone understands the plan and can execute it on their own. Also make sure you have a permanent meeting place outside, make sure it is a safe distance away from the house for your own safety. And remember Practice Practice Practice.....practice never hurts anyone.

Make sure that everyone in the house knows how to call 911 and they know what important information to give to the dispatcher. Also make sure that your house number is visible from the street day or night.

NBFD assisted Forest Hills VFD with a residential structure fire this morning on Woodside Road.This morning 153 Engine and 207 Engine (North Braddock) were dispatched to the 200-Blk of Woodside Rd, Forest Hills for a residential fire alarm. 153 Engine arrived to find smoke showing from the 2nd floor and requested a full structure assignment. Crews entered and located a small fire that was quickly extinguished.

Without the early detection of the fire alarm system this incident could have been significantly worse.

This is just a reminder that fire alarm systems and smoke detectors can make all the difference when it comes to saving lives and property.
