− | A smoke detector is a device that detects smoke, typically as an indicator of fire. Smoke detectors are typically housed in a disk-shaped plastic enclosure about 6 inches in diameter by 1 inch high. Most smoke detectors work either by optical detection (photoelectric) or by physical process (ionization), while others use both detection methods to increase sensitivity to smoke. Smoke detectors are powered either by electricity, battery or both. Some smoke detectors come with a light so that when the alarm goes off the light comes on and gives some light in the area of the detector.

− | Smoke detectors should be placed on every floor, preferably in hallways or stairways and inside each bedroom. This includes attics and garages. It would be a benefit if detectors were placed in every room with the exception of the bathroom (steam from a shower can cause the smoke alarm to go off) or kitchen (use a dectector that senses heat).

− | A carbon monoxide detector or CO detector is a device that detects the presence of the carbon monoxide (CO) gas in order to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. CO detectors are designed to measure CO levels over time and sound an alarm before dangerous levels of CO accumulate in an environment, giving people adequate warning to safely ventilate the area or evacuate. Some system-connected detectors also alert a monitoring service that can dispatch emergency services if necessary.

− | There are three types of carbon monoxide detectors that can be used, Metal Oxide, Biomimetic and Electrochemical. The Biomimetic detector can be powered by a battery and is most common one in use for the home. This is a gas alarm and is activated when carbon monoxide clings to a gel which causes the gel to darken in color and activate the alarm.

− | Proper placement of a carbon monoxide (CO) detector is important. If you are installing only one carbon monoxide detector, it is recommended that it be located near the sleeping area, where it can wake you if you are asleep. Additional detectors on every level and in every bedroom of a home provides extra protection against carbon monoxide poisoning.

− | Homeowners should remember not to install carbon monoxide detectors directly above or beside fuel burning appliances, as appliances may emit a small amount of carbon monoxide upon start-up. A detector should not be placed within fifteen feet of heating or cooking appliances or in or near very humid areas such as bathrooms.

− | There are 5 different classes of fire. They are A, B, C, D, and K.
| |
− | ;In some other countries there are different fire class codes. So check them out for your country.
| |
− | In New Zealand we have 6 classes. A: Solids, wood paper B: Flammable liquids C: Flammable Gasses D: Flammable metals E: Electrical components F: Cooking oils and fats

− | ;Class A: Class A fires are fires with fuels that are normal combustibles. These include wood, clothing, etc. They can be extinguished many different ways. Common extinguishing methods include water. Extinguishers that can be used to extinguish Class A fires are A and ABC extinguishers.

− | ;Class B: Class B fires are fires that involve fuels including oil, gas, kerosene, etc. These fires require more effort and much different methods to put them out. Common extinguishing methods are B and ABC extinguishers. However, if not available, any soil not soaked in the above liquids will do.

− | ;Class C: Class C fires are fires that involve electricity. It can have any fuel. It is best to put this fire out by first shutting off the source of electricity. This turns the fire into either a Class A, B, or K fire, which can then be put out as prescribed for each class.

After extinguishing the fire, you still have the issue of dangerous electrical current to deal with, along with the possibility of the fire reigniting. Call proper authorities immediately if the problem cannot be solved.

− | ;Class D: Class D fires are combustible metals. These burn because of chemical interaction. An example of this would be sodium and water. Sodium reacts violently when water is introduced. Class D extinguishers vary for each combustible metal. If you have a combustible metal in a work environment, OSHA (in the United States) requires that you have the proper extinguishing agent on hand to deal with any combustion. Never use water to extinguish Class D fires. There are safer methods of extinguishing, such as Class D extinguishers.

− | ;Class K: Class K fires are a newer classification used specifically for cooking oils. Water should not be used to extinguish Class K fires. Oil floats on top of water and the reacts violently with the cold water, splashing everywhere, thus spreading the fire beyond the original confines of a pot or pan. Class K extinguishers are available. However, often an extinguishing system is used instead of an extinguisher for Class K fires.

− | The instructor should be certified or at least work in an area that utilizes
| |
− | fire extinguishers often (such as an inspector or firefighter). The fire
| |
− | should be no bigger than one (1) cubic foot in size and should be in a safe
| |
− | area (like an empty parking lot). The acronym used for teaching the use of a
| |
− | fire extinguisher is PASS (Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep).
| |
− | Other countries may have their own acronyms for this. In New Zealand we use PTASS. Much the same as below with the added T= Test. Before you approach fire do a short test squeeze to ensure your extinguisher actually works.

− | If the fire is not extinguished when the first extinguisher is used up, do not retrieve another extinguisher and try again. Evacuate yourself and any remaining individuals from the building. You should have already pulled a fire alarm (if there is one) the moment you were sure there was a fire.

− | You should always be facing the fire on your approach and retreat. This is so you can prepare for any sudden flare-ups. Also be aware that your extinguisher will only last about 60 seconds. If your you cannot get to within 2 or 3 metres of the fire base it is too big your you to attempt to put out. So this is why all doorways and stairs should be free of items that could trip you. Also consider that the room you are entering will have smoke covering the ceiling making any lighting ineffective. This layer of smoke will gradually become thicker and closer to the floor as the fire burns.

− | An escape route for yourself is extremely important to keep in mind when attempting to fight or extinguish a fire. If you become trapped while trying to be heroic, you have not helped emergency personnel. Instead, you have added to the things they must do. Now they have to find and try to save you as well as fight the fire.
