Protecting your Willard business location and staff from fire damage is essential to keeping your doors open! 

Keep reading for some helpful fire safety practices you can use.

How Can I Keep My Willard Commercial Location Safe From Fire Damage?

While you can’t prevent a fire entirely - accidents do happen - there are things you can do to be as safe as possible. Here are some top fire prevention tips for your Willard workplace:

• Install good-quality smoke detectors on or near the ceilings of your business in all areas, including warehouses and outlying buildings. Placing Carbon Monoxide alarms in the same region is another effective safeguard; CO is an odorless and colorless gas produced by burning fuels.
• Ensure that multipurpose fire extinguishers are readily accessible in several areas of your property. Make sure your staff knows where they are and how to use them. 
• Have your HVAC unit inspected regularly. Employ a professional for these tasks. 
• Have an escape plan for your team, and ensure everyone understands and can follow it in case of fire. Post your evacuation plan in public areas so that your staff and customers know where to go in the event of a fire. Second-story buildings should have an escape ladder.
• Remote monitors are available today to let you know if there is a fire in your buildings while you are not there. They can be plugged into an electrical outlet easily and connected to your internet, and you will be notified by the app you download on your phone.
• Use fire-resistant building materials when available during the repair or remodeling of your business property. For example, using a fire retardant brand of insulation can be a big part of keeping your workspaces fire-safe.
