Inspection practices are usually considered to be (вважаються) the most important non-firefighting activity performed by firefighters. Prevention is the best way to keep premises safe from fire. And it is the task of fire prevention inspectors to teach people how to protect their lives and property. They say: “The best fire is the one that didn’t happen”.

The majority (більшість) of fatal home fires occur at night, when people are asleep. Instead of (замість того, щоб) waking you up, smoke and poisonous gases from the fire can quickly numb the senses (спричиняють оніміння органів чуття) and put (занурюють) you into an even deeper sleep. Your chance of dying in a home fire is cut nearly in half if you have smoke detectors to alert you to a fire. So guard your family with smoke detectors (also called smoke alarms) and install them in your home. A working smoke detector usually gives your family at least (щонайменше) three minutes to get out of your house. To make certain your smoke detectors are working, test them every month.

After smoke detectors, fire extinguishers are your family’s next line of defence. Place extinguishers where they are easy to take in an emergency and check them regularly to see that they are fully charged. ABC extinguishers are the best for homeowners. They are filled with multipurpose dry chemical that smothers most household fires – including grease and electrical. Baking soda is also good for putting out grease fires.

To prevent panic in case of fire it is necessary to plan two escape routes from every room in your home and practice using them. Make sure that furniture (меблі) or other items do not block exits.

Every family member should know what to do if a fire breaks out (розпочинається). Knowing how to protect yourself during the fire can save your life. If you smell smoke, hear a smoke detector, or see flames, get everybody out. Don’t wait for any reason. If you must escape through smoke, crawl to the door, covering your nose and mouth with a moist cloth to protect your respiratory tract. Touch the door cautiously. If the door is cool, open it and continue along your escape route. If it is hot keep the door closed and seek an alternative escape route or stay in your room. In a fire emergency, use the stairs, not the elevator. Leave the house as quickly as you can. Call the fire department from a neighbour’s phone, a mobile phone, or a call box. Do not go back into the house for any reason. The most important rules to remember in case of fire are to move quickly but intelligently (розсудливо) over the planned escape routes and not to panic!

If you can’t escape and there is no fire in your room, stay inside. Call the fire department and tell them exactly where you are trapped. Close all the doors between you and the fire. It is necessary to stuff cracks (затулити шпарини) to keep smoke out. Wait at the window and signal with a flashlight or any white cloth.
