Information about fire prevention, putting out a fire, and how to be safe with heat or open flames.

  • Don’t store aerosols (anything in a metal spray can) near heat sources
  • Store oils, lubricants, and fats far away from open flame
  • You should have one fire extinguisher for each flame source, kept near where the flame commonly occurs (so a gas oven & fire pit should have one in the kitchen and one outside/by the door)

Types of fire:

Normal fuel, accelerant, grease/oil, electrical, chemical
