Safety Tips

The Kingman Fire Department offers the following basic Fire Safety Tips:

• Install and maintain smoke detectors; the minimum requirements are to have one installed in each sleeping room, and at a point centrally located in access corridors to each sleeping area.

• Remember to test and clean your detectors one a month and change your batteries at least once a year.

• Know two ways out of every room such as a door and a window, practice fire escape drills with your family. Some family members may need assistance escaping such as infants or the elderly, plan in advance so you and your family will know what to do if a fire strikes. Determine an outside meeting place, and make sure everyone is familiar with its location. Remember never go back inside of a house that is on fire once you are outside.

• Time is your enemy in a fire, you must get outside fast. Smoke is a killer, remember to crawl low in smoke.
