The statistics for the loss of life and physical assets are shockingly horrifying! The National Crime Records Bureau indicates that “More than two lacs lives had lost during the last decade due to fire accidents in India only!.” The foremost cause of these fatalities is unawareness, ignorance, and lack of training.

5) KNOW YOUR FIRE EXTINGUISHER.

An inappropriate type of installation of fire extinguishers is one of the major risks during the process of extinguishing the fire.

For the different classes of fire, different types of extinguishers should be used for fire safety. Class B fire (fire from inflammable liquids) or from electricity causes shock or explosion if tried to extinguish with a water extinguisher. The use of a carbon dioxide extinguisher on chemical fires results in an explosion. Hence, an extinguisher should be installed according to the workplace environment for fireplace safety.
