• Safety – Be Covered

  • A fire needs three elements - heat, oxygen and fuel. Without heat, oxygen and fuel a fire will not start or spread. A key strategy to prevent fire is to remove one or more of heat, oxygen or fuel. The risk assessment should include detail on all three elements to minimise the risk of a fire starting/ spreading.

  • Did you know that if a fire starts in your home you may have as little as two minutes to escape? During a fire, early warning from a working smoke alarm plus a fire escape plan that has been practiced regularly can save lives. Learn what else to do to keep your loved ones safe!

  • Be Covered
    Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. 

  • Test

    Test smoke alarms every month. If they’re not working, change the batteries.

  • Have A Plan

    Talk with all family members about a fire escape plan and practice the plan twice a year.

  • Get Out!

    If a fire occurs in your home, GET OUT, STAY OUT and CALL FOR HELP. Never go back inside for anything or anyone.
