More than 3,400 Americans die each year in fires and approximately 17,500 are injured. An overwhelming number of fires occur in the home. There are time-tested ways to prevent and survive a fire. It’s not a question of luck. It’s a matter of planning ahead.
The U.S. Fire Administration website, courtesy of FEMA, includes free home fire prevention and safety tips. We encourage you to look over the multiple topics and educate yourself and your family on fire prevention and safety in your home.
