Fire Prevention Tip from SERVPRO: Stay safe from fires by ensuring all electrical cords are in good condition and not frayed or damaged. Also, try to avoid overloading power outlets with too many things plugged in, as it can cause overheating and lead to a fire.

Did you know fire sprinklers do not react to smoke? Heat will activate a fire sprinkler. For residential sprinkler heads to activate it needs to reach 155 degrees Fahrenheit. Learn more about fire sprinklers here. https://bit.ly/2OVf98v #FireSprinklers #FireSprinklerSystem

OSHA PAIN POINT #11: Let OSHA know how the proposed Emergency Response Standard will impact your department! Here is one ‘pain point’ that you can address in your comment. OSHA’s Proposed Rule: All wildland firefighters must have NFPA 1140 Wildland Fire Training. The Pain Point: OSHA doesn’t define who is and isn’t a wildland firefighter, and the standard says anyone who responds to a wildland fire is a wildland firefighter. Thousands of structural firefighters who fight small and infrequent brush fires could be required to have wildland training. Tell OSHA: That they need to define who is and isn’t a wildland firefighter. If you extinguish small roadside brush fires, you shouldn’t need the full NFPA 1140 training. Firefighter I training includes sufficient wildland training for firefighters that primarily engage in structural firefighting and occasionally encounter wildland fires.

Installing sprinklers in new homes supports Community Risk Reduction. According to the National Fire Protection Association - NFPA, communities that embrace home fire sprinkler systems experience a significant drop in the spread of fire, property damage, and fire-related fatalities. Join W&M Fire Protection Services as we highlight Home Fire Sprinkler Week May 12-18, and provide critical information about the lifesaving benefits of home fire sprinkler systems. We protect what you value most. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/gzZQ95KJ #HomeFireSprinklerWeek #FireSafety #FireSprinklerWeek

NFPA 70E training stands out as a cornerstone in protecting against electrical hazards. In occupational safety, where potential hazards loom large, ensuring the well-being of workers is paramount. However, mere compliance with NFPA 70E isn’t enough; thorough training is essential to grasp its significance and ensure its effective implementation. So, what exactly is the purpose of NFPA 70E training? https://lnkd.in/g_yCSUn8

🔥 Let's Talk About Fire Sprinkler Maintenance in Building Safety 🔥 Fire sprinklers aren't just helpful; they're life-savers. They significantly cut down the heat, flames, and smoke from a fire, giving everyone a better chance to get out safely while keeping damage to a minimum. It turns out that spaces with sprinklers see 50% less damage in fires—that's huge! At PB Safety, we're all about making sure buildings are as safe as they can be, which is why we're big advocates ensuring your fire safety equipment is up to scratch and regularly maintained. A quick recap of why regular maintenance should be on every building owner’s checklist:  Sprinklers give crucial extra minutes for evacuation by keeping fires in check. Regular maintenance ensures they function correctly when needed the most. Less damage from fires means lower repair costs and quicker recovery times for businesses. With many areas now requiring sprinklers by law in certain buildings, maintaining them is part of staying within the rules. Waiting to think about fire safety until it’s too late just isn’t an option. Proper maintenance of fire sprinklers and all fire safety systems is key to modern safety standards, and it’s time businesses prioritise it. If you’re looking to ensure your fire safety standards are properly maintained, get in touch and find out how we can help you get there.  https://lnkd.in/emf38HeP #BuildingSafety #SafetyFirst #PBSafety #PBFire
