Fire Safety and Evacuation
continued
Plan both primary and alternate escape routes. Since
stairwells and hallways may be blocked during a fire,
exiting through a bedroom window must be a part of
the escape plan. If the sleeping area is above the
ground floor, install a means of safely descending
outside the building if one does not already exist.
As a part of this plan, all family members should
arrange to meet at a location away from the house
(such as a neighbor’s house) so you will know that
everyone is accounted for.
If it is determined that the alarm was accidentally
sounded, the bell should be silenced, the detectors
reset, and your security company notified immediately
that there is no emergency situation.
