In social life, fire has become a frequent disaster that threatens public safety and endangers people's lives and property. According to statistics, there are about 10000 fires occurring worldwide every day, resulting in over 2000 deaths and 3000-4000 injuries. The direct property losses caused by fires each year exceed 1 billion yuan. Especially the continuous occurrence of catastrophic fires that have caused dozens or hundreds of deaths, has caused huge losses to the lives and property of the country and the people. So in the face of thick smoke and raging flames, as long as you calmly and cleverly apply knowledge of self rescue and evacuation in a fire scene, there is a great possibility of saving yourself and others. Below, the fire alarm system manufacturer will introduce several common firefighting methods for fires

1. Furniture, bedding, etc. catch fire: generally use water to extinguish the fire. Sprinkle water on flames using objects such as washbasins that can hold water around you, or connect a water pipe to a faucet to spray water to extinguish the fire; At the same time, wet and cool the combustible materials near the combustion point. But oil and electrical appliances cannot be extinguished with water.

2. Electrical fire: If a household appliance or circuit catches fire, the power should be cut off first, and then a dry powder or gas fire extinguisher should be used to extinguish the fire. Water should not be directly splashed to prevent electric shock or electrical explosion from injuring people.

3. TV set on fire: If a TV set catches fire together, it should never be watered. After cutting off the power, it can be covered with a cotton quilt to extinguish it. When extinguishing a fire, only approach the TV from the side to prevent the TV tube from exploding and injuring people. If using a fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire, it should not be directed directly at the TV screen to prevent it from suddenly catching cold and exploding after being heated.

4. Oil pot catches fire: When the oil pot catches fire, the stove gas valve should be quickly closed, and the pot cover should be directly covered or covered with a damp cloth. Alternatively, cut vegetables can be placed in the pot to cool and extinguish the fire. The pot should be steadily lifted away from the fire and cooled before opening the pot cover. Do not pour water into the oil pot to extinguish the fire.

5. Gas tank catching fire: Cover the fire with damp bedding, clothing, etc. and quickly close the valve.

6. If there is a fire on your body, do not run around. You can roll on the spot or use heavy clothing to extinguish the flames. When escaping through thick smoke, cover your mouth and nose with a damp towel, handkerchief, etc., try to keep your body close to the ground, bend or crawl forward.
