Tip of the Week: Fire Prevention Checklist. All this month I'm dedicating a percentage of my blog posts to Fire Prevention Safety. The thrust being no stone left unturned when it comes to residential Fire Safety Awareness.

In doing my research, I recently came across this Home Fire Safety Checklist:(www.ou.edu/oupd/fireprev.htm). It speaks directly to many of the issues and preparedness we’ve been addressing this month. I've made it available as a PDF so you can print it out, use it in your own home or share it with friends or clients. (Click on the checklist image below to get the PDF).

 

We're celebrating National Fire Prevention Month! Read other posts on this topic:
