High-pressure water mist has proven itself highly effective in protecting deep fat fryers for many years and is regarded as a very clean way to address the problem. If signs indicating a dangerous fire are found, this activates a pump that drives mains water through the unique wall-mounted nozzle unit, quickly filling the kitchen with dense fog and suppressing the blaze. If a kitchen fire starts, a wireless combination heat/smoke detector triggers an infrared sensor to scan the room. A heat detector is often the correct device for detecting fires while minimising the likelihood of false alarms.Īutomist Smartscan utilises "water-mist" technology, adapting it, to easily retrofit into the domestic environment. Do not locate smoke detectors in kitchens. This means that the fire service can be called as quickly as possible, minimising the damage and life risk. If you live on one level, fit a smoke alarm in the hallway between the living and sleeping areas, ideally on the ceiling, at least 300mm away from a wall or light fitting. Fit smoke alarms on every floor of your home and test the batteries once a week. Smoke alarms are a "must-have" in every home.
This is one of the major causes of serious burns in children and the elderly. Pots and handles should never hang over the edge of the hob where someone could bump into them. Never pour water on hot fat and turn pot handles toward the stove's centre when cooking on the stovetop. If your pan starts to smoke, it's too hot. When cooking with a chip pan or deep frying, dry the food before you put it in oil.
Be sure to keep your stove and oven clean, move anything that can burn at least 3 feet away from the heat, and take care if you are wearing loose clothing.
Check regularly on the things cooking in the oven. A fire only takes a few minutes to get out of hand. The best way to prevent a kitchen grease or chip pan fire is to stay near the cooker whenever you cook something.
