Any questions a homeowner might have about preventing fires are answered in this pamphlet. The fire risks are identified in all areas of the house, inside and out, and clear steps are provided for taking precautions.

Because fires can occur even when all prevention measures are taken, "Prevención de Incendios en el Hogar (Home Fire Prevention: Avoiding Disaster, Protecting Lives)" also includes step-by-step instructions for families to create a safe escape plan. The instructions are presented in an easy to understand format broken into sections for quick reference. The topics depicted are: if fire breaks out, avoidable tragedy, kitchen, basement, workroom or attic, the house as a whole, living room or den, bedrooms, landscaping and roof. These are the most likely places for fires to occur in the house. Special preventative directions will help maintain a safe living environment.
