You never envision a fire in your Burlingame, Millbrae home, but you should be prepared for one. Preparation can be the difference between a disaster being manageable or catastrophic. There are a few ways to get your household ready to go if there is a fire in your home. SERVPRO of Burlingame, Millbrae is here to help!

The most important preparation tool for your household is a Fire Escape Plan. Most people think they have one, but are they really prepared? Here’s a look at what a Fire Escape Plan really consists of so you can execute one if you have a fire:

  • Make sure everyone knows two escape routes from each room
  • Establish a rallying point outside
  • Make sure everyone can contact each other and emergency services
  • Know your smoke alarm’s noise and be familiar with what it means
  • Stay calm! If you have a plan, you do not need to panic during a fire
  • Draw your plan out! Label all rooms and exit points
  • Practice your Fire Escape Plan twice each year

This is very important for you and your household to have. Practicing is key! If you practice your plan and are comfortable with it, then you should be just fine in the event of a fire.
