You may have as little as two minutes (or even less time) to safely escape a home fire from the time the smoke alarm sounds. Your ability to get out of a home during a fire depends on early warning from smoke alarms and advance planning,\u201d said Lorraine Carli, vice president of Outreach and Advocacy at NFPA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Huntsville\/Lake of Bays Fire Department encourages all residents to embrace the 2022 Fire Prevention Week\u00a0theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s important for everyone to plan and practice a home fire escape. Everyone needs to be prepared in advance, so that they know what to do when the smoke alarm sounds. Given that every home is different, every home fire escape plan will also be different,\u201d said Paul Calleja, deputy chief. \u201cHave a plan for everyone in the home. Children, older adults, and people with disabilities may need assistance to wake up and get out. Make sure that someone will help them!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Huntsville\/Lake of Bays Fire Department\u00a0shares these key home fire escape planning tips:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Make sure your plan meets the needs of all your family members, including those with sensory or physical disabilities.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Smoke alarms should be installed inside every sleeping room, outside each separate sleeping area, and on every level of your home. Smoke alarms should be interconnected so when one sounds, they all sound.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Know at least two ways out of every room, if possible. Make sure all doors and windows open easily.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Have an outside meeting place a safe distance from your home where everyone should meet.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Practice your home fire drill at least twice a year with everyone in the household, including guests. Practice at least once during the day and at night.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For more general information about Fire Prevention Week and fire prevention in general, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fpw.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">fpw.org<\/span><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sparky.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">sparky.org<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Huntsville\/Lake of Bays Fire Department is teaming up with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to celebrate the 100th\u00a0anniversary of Fire Prevention Week (FPW) October 9-15, 2022.
