how many of you have considered fire safety in your house?

how many of you have got/thought about smoke detectors, co2 detectors, fire blankets, fire extinguishers etc?

I attended a seminar on fire safety engineering systems a month ago and after that and noticing that my house doesnt actually have any detectors (now ordered, along with some other bitS!) I just thought id remind everyone

merry christmas from steve :smiley:

At the risk of being called a pedant, CO2(carbon dioxide) aren’t a great deal of good, CO(carbon monoxide) detectors, on the other hand could save your life :wink:

actually i was thinking of a co2 fire extinguisher at the same time as the carbon monoxide detector whilst setting out a fire safety drawing for a retail unit, so the words got mixed up :smiley:

seriously though, THUMBS UP ON MONDAY :w00t:

Also of note, that if you have an older style smoke detector it will have an americium core. You cannot throw these out in the rubbish.

Modern detectors use an optical system.
