Prevention is first of all!

Prevention is first of all!

The worst thing in a fire is the death of people. This is irreplaceable by nothing. Most often, children and the elderly, sick, infirm people and people who are drunk die.

Houses and where there is a combustible material, an ignition source and oxygen burn the most.

It was found out that the main cause of fires – if it is not arson – is careless handling of matches, lighters, cigarette butts, open flame of candles and torches, electrical appliances - irons, stoves, as well as leakage of gas, gasoline and other flammable substances. A fire almost always occurs if the electrical wiring is broken, if homemade electrical appliances are included in the network. Every tenth fire is caused by children's pranks, when the child himself is not yet able to assess the full danger of playing with fire, and none of the adults has explained this to him.

A fire is always grief, misfortune, strong emotional excitement. In a word, stress. Therefore, in life, you need to act so that this trouble does not touch you, your home.

From fire statistics, it is known that out of ten fires, 6-7 occur in housing. This is the way a person is built - forgetting about vigilance is his favorite activity, and everyone believes that a fire can happen at a neighbor's house, never at mine.

It is for this reason that the employees of the Emergency Situations Department of the Ulan district constantly carry out preventive measures aimed at preventing household fires. When performing this work, all available methods and forms of propaganda and explanatory work are used, while one of the most effective methods of preventing fires in housing is conducting yard rounds of the private residential sector.

During the rounds, the population is handed fire safety memos, gatherings with the population are held. Work is underway to prevent fires in low-income families.
