Fire Facts Friday
Close before you doze!
- Always sleep with your bedroom door closed.
- Closing doors help stop the spread of fire. Because of synthetic materials, furniture, and construction, fire spreads faster than ever before.
- During a fire, a closed door can keep carbon monoxide levels at 1,000 PPM versus 10,000 PPM when a door is left open.
Research proves a closed door can mean the difference between 1,000 degrees and 100 degrees in the event of a fire.
For free smoke alarms call SCFR at 712-279-6377
