Fire safety is an indispensable part of buildings and homes. There is a sharp increase in the number of deaths caused by the fire-related incidents. Therefore it is important to ensure the security of buildings and individuals with the proper fire protection and firefighting equipment. The firefighting equipment also ensures the safety of firefighters who risk their lives to save others.
Here introduce some major firefighting equipment:
Fire Extinguisher
A fire extinguisher is a fire protection device used to put out or control small fires, often in emergency situations. It is the primary need of any building including homes as well. Every building should have an ample number of fire extinguishers to ensure fire safety. Depending on the types of fire, different types of fire extinguishers are available in the market.
Fire Alarms
Fire alarms have the role to save lives, prevent injuries and minimize damage by alerting you to a fire as soon as smoke is sensed. It is the first and the most important component of a full proof fire protection system. The alarm sound can be set to certain frequencies of different tones.
Fire blankets
Fire blankets are safety devices that are designed to extinguish starting fire. The blankets are really helpful in preventing the fire from spreading. The use of blanket along with Fire extinguisher produces good results. These non-flammable blankets are helpful in temperatures up to 900 degrees and are useful in extinguishing fires by not allowing any oxygen to the fire.
Fire Sprinklers
When the fire broke out, the fire sprinklers discharge water with a constant pressure and force. This is a major component of the fire protection system that is highly effective in preventing major fires. Fire sprinklers alone have the capacity to control more than 90% of fires.
Fire Hose
Fire hose has a big role in extinguishing the fire. The high-pressure hose carries water or other fire retardants to a fire to oppress it. A building should have this important firefighting system. After the use, usually, the fire hose is hung to dry since the standing water inside the hose can deteriorate the material inside it.
