A fire in your home can turn into a raging inferno faster than you could ever imagine. If a fire breaks out in your home, don't waste time trying to save possessions. Get everyone out and away from the building as quickly as possible, then call the fire department from a neighbour's phone. Never re-enter a burning building. A message from the Fire Marshal's Public Fire Safety Council and your fire department.

 

 

 

 

Your fire department reminds you to test your smoke alarms each month by pushing the alarm test button. If the alarm doesn't sound, replace the battery or the alarm immediately. Remember, only a working smoke alarm can save your life.

 

If a fire broke out tonight while you were sleeping, would you and your family get out alive? Develop a home fire escape plan now and practice it regularly. Remember--fire won't wait, so plan your escape.
