These three items can significantly improve your safety in case of a fire! Read more below:
A Smoke Detector
These are quite affordable and can be ordered directly from Takealot or Builders Warehouse.
Please remember to test the detector once a year by pressing the test button for a few seconds until the alarm activates.
We suggest that you place the detector on the ceiling, but as far from your stove or hob as possible.
Fire Blanket
A fire blanket is ideal in case of a kitchen fire. Please ensure that it is located in a convenient location in your kitchen, and that it will still be accessible in case of a stove fire. Here’s a link to a fire blanket from Takealot.
Fire Extinguisher
Fire extinguishers are very affordable and a relatively cheap. You can buy one for R100 from Makro or Builders Warehouse.
If you decide to only purchase one item, make it a fire extinguisher.
