What to Include in Your Fire Safety Plan

7/26/2022 (Permalink)

  • Create a plan for each room

Your fire emergency plan will be different for each room of your home because the exit points are different. Some rooms are on the first floor while some are on the second or third which requires completely different escape routes. 

  • Have two ways out of each room

It is important that your plan involves two different exits out of the same room. Most people do one exit plan through the door and one exit plan through the window. This is in case one exit is blocked by flames. 

  • Have yearly family meetings about evacuation plans and practice

Each year, your family should familiarize themselves again with their fire escape plan. Some exit routes may change as the house and landscaping are updated. If your master bedroom's window exit relied on the tree in your front yard that was cut down, you will have to create a new plan for that room. 

  • Choose a meeting spot after evacuations 

Included in your fire escape plan should be a meeting spot for the whole family once everyone escapes from their respective rooms. This can be a local park or just your neighbor's house, but this should be set in advance so you can quickly figure out who may be stuck in the house.
