In Case of Fire…Do You Know What to Do???
It’s still cold outside. Some people are still burning anything they can to stay warm.
Fires start too easily sometimes. I had a kitchen fire at my home 25 years ago. I think back and it still scares the you know what ….well it still scares me!! We didn’t make the mistake of putting water on it. We took a little too long getting the pan lid on the pan. We had no baking soda nearby, no fire extinguisher close by. We had burned hands trying to reach the pan.
Being in the business of Real Estate, you’d think I would know better. My fire extinguisher, NOW, is only 6 feet away from the stove.
We ended up with a lot of smoke damage and new cabinets, stove and microwave. What a pain to clean all that up. We had a professional come in. It took him several days and several thousand dollars.
So, I have a website that has some do’s and don’ts for you to check out. If you want to call your local fire department, they will be happy to send you information as well.
Puyallup Fire or Pierce County Fire….whichever, just call!! If you drop by, they usually have some stickers for you or the kids.
