Fire: Life-Saving Tools
4/8/2019 (Permalink)
Living in Los Angeles with our busy schedules we tend to forget the importance of maintaining home/property maintenance. Since spring cleaning is in effect why not also replace batteries or install a smoke alarm unit. Check your state requirement or contact your local Fire Marshall to assure all codes are met.
In addition, another life-saving tool in any home or property is the portable fire extinguisher. To properly use the National Fire Protection Association suggest remembering P-A-S-S:
- Pull the pin-point nozzle away from you.
- Aim low- point nozzle at the base of the fire.
- Squeeze lever slowly and evenly.
- Sweep nozzle left to right.
These emergency life-saving tools will help assist you in any fire emergency. SERVPRO of Carson/West Carson can help prepare any property or home by planning a Fire Emergency Preparedness plan. For more info contact SERVPRO of Carson/West Carson at 310-637-7701.
