Household Fire Safety Audit
Most fires occur in the home. To minimize this danger, we recommend that a household fire safety
audit be conducted and a fire escape plan be developed.
1. Are all electrical appliances and outlets in a safe condition? Check for frayed cords, overloaded
lighting circuits, etc. If you are uncertain about the condition of your electrical appliances or
household service, have a professional evaluate these units.
2. Are all flammable liquids stored safely in closed containers in a well ventilated cool area? Cleaning
with flammable liquids should be avoided.
3. Are fire hazardous materials (matches) well out of reach of children?
4. Are furnaces and wood burning appliances properly installed, clean and in good working order?
Have a professional evaluate these appliances.
