Požarna vrata preprečujejo, da bi se v Chesterju razširil hišni ogenj
Požarna vrata v prilogi hiše v Chesterju so preprečila požar, ki je prevzel celotno posest.
Cheshire gasilska in reševalna služba ljudi opominja na pomen požarnih vrat in zagotavlja, da so običajna vrata zaprta, da se prepreči širjenje požara.
Gasilci iz Chesterja so bili poklicani v hišo na Old Moss Lane, Tarvin, malo pred 10. uro v nedeljo, 18. maja, kjer je bila gospodarska poslopja za glavno hišo dobro.
Posadke so v težkih pogojih potrebovale približno dve uri, da so ogenj pod nadzorom. Sprva so se lotili plamena od znotraj z dihalnimi aparati, vendar so se kmalu morali umakniti zaradi možnosti, da se stavba zruši.
Spodnji del bivalnih prostorov je bil rešen zaradi požarnih vrat, ki so bila nameščena med garažo in sončno sobo.
Lastnik nepremičnine, Darren Carr, je bil takrat doma z ženo, hčerko in dvema psoma. He said: "We were just about to go out into Chester and it is so lucky we were home to raise the alarm, I dread to think what would have happened if we had not been there. My wife saw the smoke coming out of the garage and we initially tried to put it out ourselves but within seconds it took hold and was too strong. I can't believe how effective the fire door was at containing the heat, the garage is completely destroyed but there was no damage to the summer house, it will just need redecorating. I Upam, da je naš primer ljudem, kako učinkovita so požarna vrata. "
Keith Brooks, Head of Prevention and Protection at Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "This case is a perfect example of how important fire doors are when a fire breaks out both in the home and the workplace. They play a critical element in saving lives and property and should never be propped open. We would advise people to also get into the habit of closing all doors as a matter of course to prevent fire spreading and at the first sign of fire get out and call 999."
Cheshire gasilska in reševalna služba se zavezuje, da bo ponudila podporo in nasvete, da bi preprečila, da bi se požari najprej zgodili. Da bi to storili, želimo ljudi bolj seznaniti s šestimi preprostimi koraki, ki jih lahko sprejmejo, da ostanejo na varnem.
