Fire Prevention Week

By Firefighter/EMT Arun Pant

October 8, 2023

Today kicks off Fire Prevention Week and this year we are focusing on, “Cooking safety starts with YOU. Pay attention to fire prevention,”

COOK WITH CAUTION!
- Leading cause of kitchen fires are due to unattended cooking.
- If you leave the kitchen be sure to turn off all hot surfaces.
- Turn pot handles towards the back of the stove, so no one can bump or pull them over.
- If a fire accrues place lid on pot to smother the flames, turn off all burners.
- Keep kids at least 3 feet away from all cooking utilities.
- Keep all combustible items away from stove.
- Remember PASS (pull, aim, squeeze, sweep) when using a fire extinguisher and if you are not comfortable, get out and call 911.
