for Fire Safety in Brisbane
Implementing these measures enhances your fire safety readiness without requiring professional expertise!
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS, CONDUCT REGULAR CHECKS
Ensure that all fire extinguishers are easily accessible and not blocked by furniture or other obstacles.
Regularly check the pressure gauge to ensure it’s within the operational range. Extinguishers should have a green indicator to show they are pressurized and ready to use.
Inspect for signs of physical damage, corrosion, or leakage.
Shake chargeable fire extinguishers monthly to prevent the settling of the extinguishing agent.
MONTHLY TESTING OF SMOKE ALARMS
Test all smoke alarms monthly by pressing the test button to ensure they are working effectively.
Replace batteries at least once a year or as soon as you hear the low-battery warning, which is usually a chirping sound.
Vacuum around the smoke alarm vents to clear dust that can hinder smoke detection.
INSPECT FIRE DOORS
Regularly ensure that fire doors are not propped open as they must close properly to block the spread of fire and smoke.
Check that the seals around fire doors are intact to help contain smoke and flames.
Fire doors should be self-closing and not have any items obstructing their closure.
CLEAR ESCAPE ROUTES
Regularly ensure that all escape routes and fire exits are clear of any obstructions and easily accessible.
Clearly mark escape routes and exits with visible signs, maintaining lighting that can guide in case of power failures.
Conduct regular walk-throughs to check for any changes or obstructions that might compromise these paths.
CHECK FIRE BLANKETS
Ensure that fire blankets are stored in places where they are easily accessible, especially in areas prone to specific types of fires, like kitchens.
Check that the container or package is unsealed and ready to use in an emergency.
Familiarise yourself and other occupants with how to use a fire blanket in case of a small fire, such as a kitchen grease fire.
