Smoke Alert [ShieldHome]
If you don’t wake up in the first seconds of a fire, who will save your children’s lives?
Modern homes have many flaws. Fires are becoming so common that in the UK, around 250,867 domestic fires occur every year, and 90% of the time, they are caused by electrical wiring faults. Furthermore, houses are full of synthetics, plastics, and polyurethane foams (sofas, mattresses, rugs).
These materials burn 8 times faster than wood. Therefore, in modern fires, you have just 3 minutes to escape before your route is blocked. Moreover, the combustion of these materials releases Carbon Monoxide (a toxic gas) which induces drowsiness. Every time you breathe in Carbon Monoxide, it enters your bloodstream, displaces oxygen, and takes its place.
This can cause you to sleep through the fire and wake up too late. In other words, you are not just fighting against fire; you are fighting against time, against a sedative toxic gas, and above all, for the lives of your children or loved ones, like your pet, who will be completely helpless in that moment.
Everyone thinks it won't happen to them... until it does. Ask any firefighter: regret is always accompanied by, 'I didn't think I needed one
