Fires happen unexpectedly, at any time of the day or night - often with no warning or even reason. As the rash of fires by lightning strike in our most recent storms attest: it's absolutely imperative to have a plan to protect the safety, and survival, of your family or employees in case of such an emergency.
Fire victims rarely see the flames. Fire consumes the oxygen in the air and increases the amount of deadly carbon monoxide, causing a loss of consciousness or death within minutes. 60 percent of house fire deaths occur in homes with no working smoke alarms.
Our best chance of surviving a fire is early detection and notification of our local area fire department. While we know our fire departments are staffed with trained, dedicated professionals, there are a wide number of factors that impact response times. One of the most important things you can do to protect your family or employee's safety is to install a fire control system that gives you the ability to alert first responders immediately and with ease. Even better: utilize a monitored or smart home protection system that will make the call for you. During a fire, working smoke alarms, fire control systems, emergency call systems to alert first responders, and a regularly practiced fire escape plan will save lives.
There's nothing more important than the safety of your family or employees. Protecting them and your assets is an important priority.
