President of the Saskatchewan Association of Fire Chiefs, Mike Kwasnica, says that most homes furnishing are made from a petroleum base. Making them quite flammable. He says that families only have around two to three minutes to exit the house.“Ideally, you want to make sure in the design of your home the bedroom windows are escapable, you have a fire escape plan and that your early warning systems which is your smoke alarms, notify you the minute the fire starts.
Pritchard adds this week isn’t about teaching people about firefighters, but ensuring families are aware of the dangers. “It’s not about the response, it’s about you are looking out for yourself and getting out of that structure. Meeting outside the house, that’s why we are doing this event. ”
