Visual 2.2 Unit Objectives  Explain the role of CERTs in fire safety.  Identify and reduce potential fire risks in the home and workplace.  Conduct a basic sizeup for a fire emergency.  Understand basic safety precautions.  Identify hazardous materials in the home and community.  Extinguish small fires using a fire extinguisher.

Visual 2.3 The Fire Triangle  Heat  Fuel  Oxygen

Visual 2.4 Fire Chemistry Classes of fire:  A: Ordinary combustibles  B: Flammable and combustible liquids  C: Energized electrical equipment  D: Combustible metals

Visual 2.5 Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace  Avoid the “electrical octopus.”  Don’t run cords under carpets.  Replace broken or frayed cords.  Maintain appliances.

Visual 2.6 Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace  Install a natural gas detector.  Locate and label gas shutoffs.

Visual 2.7 Reducing Fire Hazards in Home and Workplace  Read labels.  Use L.I.E.S. storage procedures (Limit, Isolate, Eliminate, Separate).

Visual 2.8 CERT sizeup Answer these questions:  Can my buddy and I fight the fire safely?  Do we have the right equipment?  Are there other hazards?  Is the building structurally damaged?  Can we escape?

Visual 2.9 CERT Sizeup 1.Gather Facts. 2.Assess Damage. 3.Consider Probabilities. 4.Assess Your Situation. 5.Establish Priorities. 6.Make Decisions. 7.Develop Plans of Action. 8.Take Action. 9.Evaluate Progress.

Visual 2.10 Firefighting Resources Resources available:  Portable fire extinguishers  Wet standpipes  Confinement  “Creative” resources

Visual 2.11 Types of Fire Extinguishers  Water  Dry chemical  Carbon dioxide  Specialized fire extinguisher

Visual 2.13 Types A B C D Fire Type Extinguishing AGENTMETHOD Water Foam Dry Chem. FOAM/CO2 Dry Chem./ Halon Special Agents Removes air & heat Breaks Chain Reaction Removes air Breaks Chain Reaction Usually removes air

Visual 2.14 Deciding to use a Fire Extinguisher Ask these Questions  Can I escape quickly and safely from the area if I attempt to extinguish the fire? (The first priority for you and your buddy is safety.)  Do I have the right type of extinguisher?  Is the extinguisher large enough for the fire?  Is the area free from other dangers, such as hazardous materials and falling debris?

Visual 2.15 P.A.S.S Test the extinguisher before approaching any fire. P.A.S.S. PULL AIM SQUEEZE SWEEP

Visual 2.16 Fire Suppression Safety Do:  Use safety equipment.  Work in a buddy system.  Have a backup team.  Have two ways to exit.  Maintain a safe distance.  Overhaul the fire.

Visual 2.17 Fire Suppression Safety DON’T  Try to suppress large fires.  Get too close.  Fight it alone.  Enter smoke-filled areas.
