Fire prevention guidelines vary according to the type of fires you might expect, where they are located, and what steps are taken to extinguish them.
For example, fire prevention in a forest is very different from fire prevention in a petrol filling station.
However, as a general rule, "prevention" includes
- the recognition of potential fire hazards
- taking steps to reduce or eliminate the hazards
- educating people about fire safety
- providing a way to put out or limit a fire
- making sure everyone can get out of the danger zone safely
Never leave a fire unattended
Start all fires with newspaper or another highly flammable object
Extinguish all fires and burning coals or embers with water or dirt
