Safety Tips

• Draw a home escape plan that shows all the doors and windows and discuss it with everyone in your home
• If possible, know at least two ways out of every room
• Have a designated meeting place outside the home
• Practice your drill at night and during the day with everyone, twice a year
• Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can’t help them

Facts

• A closed-door may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. Install smoke alarms inside every sleeping room and outside each separate sleeping area.
• Install alarms on every level of the home. Smoke alarms should be interconnected. When one smoke alarm sounds, they all sound.
• While 71 percent of Americans have an escape plan in case of a fire, only 47 percent of those who have practiced it
• One-third of American households who made an estimate thought they would have at least six minutes before a fire in their home would become life-threatening
