National Fire Prevention Day!

Good morning!  We thought we would send out our safety snippet today in honor of National Fire Prevention Day!  We wanted to focus this snippet on your own home’s fire safety.  The first link is from First Alert with placement advice for Carbon Monoxide and Smoke/Heat Detectors.

Proper Placement for Smoke Alarms, CO Alarms and Fire Extinguishers

This NFPA link is how to create a home fire safety escape plan which you may commonly hear referred to as E.D.I.T.H. (Exit Drills In The Home).

The final link is from the “Firefighter Garage” with most common causes of home fires and how to address/minimize those risks.

14 Most Common Causes of House Fires (2025)

Please keep an eye out for emails from us regarding scheduling fire inspections.  We will send out a list of what documents we are required to see, and we want to see those prior to our visit so if anything is missing or there are issues, we can correct those prior to the inspection date.  Inspection season starts on November 15th and concludes on 12/31.  Any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out.  We have attached the NYSED Fire Safety Manual for your reference.  Enjoy your day and have a great weekend!
