Home fire safety FAQ

What type of fire extinguisher do I need at home?

A multi-purpose ABC-rated extinguisher handles the most common household fire types (ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids, and electrical fires), making it the right default choice for most homes.

How often should I test my smoke alarms?

Smoke alarms should be tested monthly and have batteries replaced at least once a year (or use 10-year sealed-battery alarms); the entire unit should be replaced every 10 years regardless of battery type.

Where should smoke alarms be placed in a home?

Smoke alarms should be placed inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of the home, including the basement — this maximizes early warning time in an emergency.

What should a family fire escape plan include?

A good escape plan identifies two exits from every room, a designated meeting point outside, and is practiced with the whole family at least twice a year, including a fire drill at night.
