Is it necessary to have a fire extinguisher in my home?

<> is completely necessary, especially if there are children at home, we must take precautions, a fire extinguisher is honestly not very difficult, even if you go to a special store to buy something the same size as the car, it can also help a lot at a critical moment, of course, it is best to be specially equipped with some standard fire extinguishing appliances stipulated by our country, there is no expensive consumption in total, a purchase, a lifetime benefit, just like insurance.

My cousin's family has suffered the loss of not having a fire extinguisher, and it is not a small farce, and now it is still a topic of ridicule by us, and his family has been specially equipped with a fire extinguisher since that incident, just in case.

It happened during the winter holidays, and we lived in close proximity. At that time, because the traffic was inconvenient, firecrackers and other New Year's necessities needed to be stored at home in advance. This is also the fuse of what happened, my cousin at the time was only in the fifth grade, and it was the time when I was most curious and playful about these, and our daily fun was to secretly steal firecrackers from home and go out, I believe everyone has had such an experience.

There are three days before the Chinese New Year, and the firecrackers at home are basically wiped out by us in addition to the large cannon piers and hanging whips, but we still want to play, and it is very boring, and we will be found if we take it out secretly, what should we do? My cousin had a bad idea, he said we could take out the little cannons from the whip and go out to play, and even if we didn't want to go out and put it at home. How can we manage so much, and everyone says that my cousin is smart.

Then it began to dry, like wool, and one person grabbed a handful. Speaking of the situation at home at that time, the family was only about 15 square meters, and there was only a little empty space except for the bed. My cousin couldn't help it, so he ordered one at home in advance, and the sparks splashed on other firecracker dealers, and the show began.

The whole house was like a fireworks show, and when we all ran out, looking through the window, the red, green, yellow, and deafening sound of firecrackers made the whole corridor lively. We had nowhere to get water, no fire extinguishers, and the adults in the neighborhood were helpless to watch the whole house being blown up.

Yes, yes, yes. Whoever wants to say that it is useless and who is in a hurry, because I was frightened, bought a state-of-the-art and new-style fire extinguisher and put it at home, to be exact, in a rental house. I even want to give one to my hometown's house.

This also starts with a fire knowledge lecture from the company, some time ago I received a company that said that there would be a lecture on fire knowledge, so that each department sent two people to listen. I thought to myself, maybe it's boring, but at least I don't have to work for that hour, and it's pretty cool. So I happily agreed.

Don't say, the lecture brother is quite handsome, the lecture began, it's a projection ppt There are **, there are **, there are text, anyway, from the lightest fire scene, to explain to you one by one to the most terrifying, the most tragic fire. Frightened people are creepy, I am sorry for my life, the sense of security is very low, I am so frightened, I can't wait to buy all the fire equipment on the market home, what fire blankets, fire extinguishers, fire alarms, smoke and whatever; At this time, there were colleagues who were in the same mood as me, and asked the instructor how to buy a reliable home for these things, and the instructor said, don't worry, read the ** first. "Oh".

After reading all the **, the lecture is over, we are almost frightened, the instructor began to implement the routine, took out a small list, let us help him complete the task, write his name **, because there will be a return visit in the organization, make sure he has come to the lecture. It's normal to look at everything, isn't it.

But ah, there are 4 5 contents on the list are all orders for fire-fighting equipment just now, and the instructor said that this is a manufacturer that their troops specialize in, and the quality is guaranteed. When everyone heard this, they were just looking for such a place, and they began to order.

I, of course, am no exception, and... I'm the craziest. I almost bought more than a dozen of them, and finally calmed down and bought a fire extinguisher for more than 300 and an alarm flashlight for more than 100. Most of the other colleagues buy smoke alarms, dozens of dollars each.

So many colleagues don't understand me, and say, why are you so good at fooling, I myself think I'm very good at fooling, and sometimes I joke with everyone that when I get old, it must be the kind of old lady who gives me two eggs and goes to listen to classes to buy health medicine.

After all, it's troublesome. I don't regret buying this fire extinguisher, so I put it in the living room, and I also bought a sense of security, I hope I can't use this thing for a lifetime, but if I need it at any time, it's a lifesaver.

Now the Hangzhou nanny arson case in Weibo headlines, how tragic it is. It can be seen how weak China's awareness of fire prevention is, and such a luxurious property has cut corners even with such basic facilities, and has not done staff training in this area. This also reflects a state of affairs in China.

So, be prepared, let's have a few fire extinguishers at home. It doesn't cost a lot of money.

The unit organizes safety training, and the person in charge of production and the leaders of various departments must participate. To tell the truth, human life is a matter of heaven, we can not be sloppy in anything related to safety, for a unit, especially a state-owned enterprise like ours, because of safety accidents, at the beginning of the year to die a year for nothing, at the end of the year to die for a year for nothing, we ourselves fined, lose some money, it doesn't matter if we are demoted, these things can be earned back, no matter how high the position is, people are all ordinary old men and old ladies when they retire, what does it matter if they are promoted or demoted. However, because of safety accidents, families and individuals who have been injured will bear the pain of a lifetime, a family was originally a strong laborer, suddenly gone, or has become a burden on the family, not to mention making a fortune, even life has to ask for help, become the object of people's pity, how to compete with others in this society?

Our unit pays special attention to safe production, safety and quality above all else. But when it comes to our own homes, how many of us are so concerned about safety? The unit is forced by the situation, the pressure from the superiors, we are free at home, no one forces you to pay attention to safety, only we remind us.

The teacher of safety training told us that we should be equipped with fire extinguishers and other basic fire-fighting equipment at home, and when we return home, we must first confirm the safety before entering the house, and the pipes, natural gas, tap water, etc. at home should be checked and maintained regularly, of course, professional people should be asked to maintain, we should not save so much money, and there is a fluke mentality, so as to brew a big hidden danger, with reference to the standard of the unit to arrange the safety facilities at home will not be a problem in the first place, the key is that there is a safety alarm bell that often reminds us of ourselvesLearn a little more about safety emergency measures, and remember to pay attention to safety!

Fire extinguishers should be placed in the house.

Fire extinguishing equipment is a kind of fire fighting essential that is often neglected and used in urgent need. Especially in today's high-rise buildings, where a large amount of wood, plastic, and fabric are used to decorate the interior, once there is a fire, there is no proper fire extinguishing equipment, which may cause a catastrophe.

In ancient times, fire extinguishing appliances were simple, nothing more than hooks, axes, shovels, buckets, and the like. Invented in 1816 by British captain Manby, a Norfolk native, the first real special-purpose fire extinguisher consisted of one or two drums filled with more than one litre of water and compressed air.

Origin

The world's first fire extinguisher was built in London in 1834, when a fire almost completely destroyed the old Palace of Westminster, where the British Houses of Parliament were located. Among the many firewatchers, there was one person who did not come to see the fire with nothing to do, and he was George William Manby. Born in Norfolk, Manby joined the army as a young man, rose to captain, and served as commander of the Yarmouth Barracks, a position that gave him time to devote himself to the cause that strongly appealed to him to saving human lives.

Earlier, he was keen on shipwreck rescue, inventing the trouser lifebuoy and being the first to propose the use of lighthouse flashes to identify signals. Later, Manby shifted his genius from marine rescue to fire lifesaving. At the time of the fire, he was experimenting with fireproof clothing.

His most remarkable and pioneering contribution was the invention of the portable compressed gas fire extinguisher, which was a two-foot-long, eight-inch diameter copper cylinder with a capacity of four gallons, essentially the same as today's fire extinguishers. He put the fire extinguisher in his specially designed trolley, and he hoped that there would be a patrol equipped with such a fire extinguisher to immediately extinguish the initial small fire at the ** location, so as to reduce the number of major fires.

I must put it, my family lives on the 19th floor, room 2, my house next door to the 4th **, at that time, a woman at home with a child can not pull away, can not go to the door to get the property with the fire extinguisher, the house burned out, played redecorate, if there is a family at that time, it will not be so much loss.

I think there must be a fire extinguisher at home, not only a fire extinguisher, but also a smoke alarm, whether it is a building or a commercial house, once a fire occurs, if it cannot be extinguished in time, it is not only the house but also the property, and even life, property can be restarted, but life is only once, I hope everyone can think about their own safety.

No, you don't. It's okay to pay more attention to fire prevention. Remember to turn off the gas valve and power supply every time you use it.

Hehe, you're overthinking.

There is no need to do this.

Because according to the residential design code fire protection requirements.

Fire extinguishers are required to be set up in the compartment with 2 x 2 kg dry powder fire extinguishers, which is enough to protect everyone's safety in terms of family evacuation and safety, hehe, I am engaged in construction, this is my suggestion.

But what if you're still afraid of insecurity.

You can also set it up at home.

Keep it in a cool place, though.

Not required, but prepared. In the case of a household appliance fire, when the electrical equipment catches fire during operation, the power supply must be cut off before extinguishing. If power is not cut off quickly, fire extinguishers such as carbon dioxide, carbon tetrachloride, 1211 fire extinguishers or dry chemical fire extinguishers can be used.

When using, a sufficient safety distance must be maintained, and the distance should not be less than 40cm for equipment of 10kv and below.

When extinguishing electrical fires that have not cut off the power supply, the following fire extinguishers need to be used: carbon tetrachloride fire extinguisher - it has a good fire extinguishing effect on fires in electrical equipment, carbon tetrachloride does not burn, and it does not conduct electricity. Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher - most suitable for extinguishing fires in electrical and electronic equipment, carbon dioxide has no corrosive effect and will not damage equipment.

Dry chemical fire extinguisher - it combines the advantages of carbon tetrachloride and carbon dioxide, and is suitable for extinguishing electrical fires with fast fire extinguishing speed.

Portable dry chemical fire extinguisherIt is suitable for the initial disaster of flammable and combustible liquids, gases and live equipment; In addition to the above-mentioned types of fires, portable dry powder fire extinguishers can also extinguish the initial disaster of solid substances, but they cannot extinguish metal combustion fires.

When using a portable dry chemical fire extinguisher to extinguish a solid combustible fire, it should be sprayed at the place where the burning is most violent, and swept up and down, left and right. If conditions permit, the user can carry the fire extinguisher and spray along the four perimeters of the combustible, so that the dry powder fire extinguishing agent is evenly sprayed on the surface of the combustible until the flame is completely extinguished.

Fire extinguishing principle. Dry powder fire extinguishing agent is a dry and easy-to-flow fine powder used for fire extinguishing, which is composed of inorganic salts with fire extinguishing effect and a small amount of additives that are dried, crushed and mixed into fine solid powder. It is a fire extinguishing agent that is widely used in fire fighting and is mainly used in fire extinguishers.

In addition to the special dry powder chemical fire extinguishing agent for fighting metal fires, dry powder fire extinguishing agent is generally divided into two categories: BC dry powder fire extinguishing agent and ABC dry powder. Such as sodium bicarbonate dry powder, modified sodium salt dry powder, potassium salt dry powder, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate dry powder, diammonium hydrogen phosphate dry powder, phosphoric acid dry powder and amino dry powder fire extinguishing agent.

Dry powder fire extinguishing agent mainly extinguishes the fire through the physical and chemical action that occurs when the powder mist sprayed under the action of pressurized gas contacts and mixes with the flame.

First of all, I would like to express my opinion, fire extinguishers are a very important thing in the home, and it can really save people's lives in some cases. In many families that have suffered from fires, if they have a fire extinguisher at home, there is a high probability that they will not be separated from their loved ones, and so many people will not be afraid of fire. For we would rather be prepared than be used, and unavailable than prepared.

Although there is no shortage of water at home, there are times when there is a fire that cannot be extinguished with water. At this time, it is necessary to use a fire extinguisher, but the fire extinguisher should also pay attention to whether the internal pressure is enough from time to time. So I think every home should have a fire extinguisher.

For the purchase of fire extinguishers, we should buy them when our family conditions allow.

There are five main types of fire extinguishers: dry powder fire extinguishers, water-based fire extinguishers, carbon dioxide fire extinguishers, aerosol fire extinguishers, and hexafluoropropane fire extinguishers.

1. Dry powder fire extinguisher: from 1 kg to 5 kg of different weights and different brands, ** slightly different, the cheapest fire extinguisher has 40 yuan, and the expensive fire extinguisher is 1,000 yuan. Dry powder fire extinguishers are suitable for extinguishing initial fires such as oil, combustible gas, and electrical equipment.

2. Water-based fire extinguishers: water-based fire extinguishers are relatively small like 1 liter or less, and the vehicle-mounted ones are about 30 yuan, and if they are slightly larger than 900 ml, they are about 90 yuan.

3. Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher: The minimum capacity of carbon dioxide type fire extinguisher is 2 kg, and the fire extinguisher** is about 180 yuan. The price is directly proportional to the capacity.

Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers are suitable for extinguishing initial fires in precision instruments, electronic equipment and electrical appliances below 600 volts.

4. Aerosol fire extinguisher: aerosol fire extinguishers are generally not cheap, aerosol fire extinguishers are mostly small fire extinguishers, small in weight but not cheap, like an aerosol fire extinguisher in Digallen is about 300 yuan.

5. Hexafluoropropane fire extinguisher: This kind of fire extinguisher is generally rare, rarely used in households, mainly used in industrial sites and municipal and commercial places, and is more expensive.

My family mainly buys a dry chemical fire extinguisher, mainly because it is cheap. Finally, you must prepare a fire extinguisher at home!
