Fire safety
About half of all fires in the home start in the kitchen and more than 4 in 10 of all deaths from fire happen during winter.

It is essential to install smoke alarms throughout your home and test them every month. Change the batteries every year, perhaps on a memorable date such as a birthday.

Where possible, make sure you and your family know more than one safe way out of every room in your home. You can write down an escape plan in case you have a fire in the home and practice it regularly.

Make sure children know that if their clothes catch fire, they mustn't run away — this only makes the fire burn hotter and faster. Instead, tell them to:

STOP immediately where they are.
DROP quickly to the ground and cover their face with their hands.
ROLL over and over to put out the flames.
Every state and territory fire authority has resources to help children understand what to do in the case of a fire, such as easy-to-remember advice like "get down low and go, go, go!".

Here are a few tips to keep you and your home fire-safe:

Keep curtains, tablecloths, and bedding away from portable heaters.
Keep wet clothes at least 1m from heaters or fireplaces, and never place clothes or towels on your heater.
Clean the lint filter every time you use a clothes dryer since lint that has built up can catch fire.
Never use your gas oven or stove as a room heater.
Use just 1 appliance per power point and switch them off when you’re not using them. Heaters consume a lot of power and may overload the supply, which can cause a fire.
Never leave burning candles or any open flame unattended.
Store matches and lighters in a safe place, out of reach of young children.
Always keep children away from open heat sources such as fireplaces and gas stoves, and remember that even clothing with a ‘low fire danger’ label can still catch fire.

Portable outdoor gas heaters
Never use a gas heater designed or marketed for outdoor use inside your home.

Portable outdoor gas heaters can cause fires if they are incorrectly stored, not properly maintained, and placed too close to overhead coverings, such as awnings, or to other flammable materials.

Outdoor heaters need regular safety checks and should be serviced every 2 years. Warning signs that a heater is not working well include gas flames and radiant panels that burn yellow or produce soot.

If you detect a gas leak from your portable outdoor gas heater, turn it off at the cylinder if safe to do so. Do not use it until it has been professionally checked to ensure its safety.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
So we've all heard not to drink really cold water in the heat, but a lot of us haven't heard the why or experienced it first hand. Cold water is good, so how could it be bad? Well, yesterday I found out. We were out working in 100° weather (not a good idea in itself) when my dad noticed my face was getting pretty red and suggested that I take a break. I immediately grabbed a cold bottle of water and drank it. After he did a little more work he suggested that I get in the truck and blast the a.c.. in the truck I drank some more cold water and very shortly started feeling strange. I started seeing spots, my stomach got extremely nauseous and my hands and feet started tingling. I felt like I was going to throw up so I opened the truck door and the next thing I know I'm face first in the ground and my dad's rolling me over and wiping off my face. Heh said my eyes had rolled back a bit and I didn't come to for a few minutes. Emt arrived and asked what was going on. Immediately the guy knew what happened. Apparently, if you're too hot and chug a bottle of cold water, it Can send your body into shock. It thinks that the stomach is going hypothermic and so it takes the warm blood from your hand,feet and head and sends it to the stomach. You will lose consciousness. He said cold water is good, but only in sips. Room temperature water is better if you need fast rehydration. Just figured I would share in case anyone could benefit from my mishap. Summer's just around the corner. Stay cool. Feel free to share if you think it could help someone. I wish I had learned this a long time ago.
