Why Closing Your Door Can Save You Thousands.

11/1/2019 (Permalink)

A recent house fire left extensive damage to the home and contents.

The thought of a fire for a home or business owner can cause a slew of emotions. Closing doors is one small step that can help contain the extent of damage.

Closing doors prevents the fire from getting more oxygen and room to spread at a faster rate. Smoke and soot travel throughout the house and breathing in the smoke inhalation is very dangerous. Smoke contains many toxic products including carbon monoxide. It is important to close your bedroom door at night while you sleep. The alarms will go off and wake you up, giving you time to get out without the flames, toxic smoke, and high head temperatures in your room. Make sure you check the smoke detectors in your home often and have one close to where you sleep.
