10.4 MINIMIZING HOME FIRE HAZARDS
How can you avoid the three most common ca uses of fires at home?
• Never leave cooking food unattended. It is the leading cause of fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended
cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure.
• Stay alert when smoking. Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths. Smoke detectors and smoulder-resistant
bedding and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents.
• Maintain your heating system. Faulty heating systems are the second leading cause of residential fires.
