1.React as soon as you hear your smoke alarm go off. If you hear your smoke detector or alarm going off and see fire, try to exit your home as safely as possible.

2.Safely exit through doors. If you see smoke under a door, then you cannot go out that door, because smoke is toxic and fire is sure to follow. If you don't see smoke, put the back of your hand up to the door to make sure it doesn't feel hot.

3.Protect yourself from smoke inhalation. Get low to the floor and crouch or crawl on your hands and knees to evade the smoke. Though you may think that running is faster, encourage your family members to crouch or crawl, too

4.Ward off the smoke if you can't get out. If you can't escape your home and are waiting for help, don't panic. You may not be able to get out, but you can still take some measures to ward off the smoke and stay safe

5.Call for help from a second story window. If you are trapped in your second story room in the event of a fire, do what you can to get yourself to an area where people will be able to hear you or see you.

The best way to keep your children and your home safe from fires and smoke is to use reliable smoke detectors or fire detectors. There is a lot of information on the Internet about various detectors from China, which you can order at an inexpensive price. It sounds cool and cheap, but unfortunately these sensors can fail at the worst possible time. For this reason, I, for one, have found https://ajax.systems/products/fireprotect/ sensors. If you want to control everything from a mobile app and monitor the condition of your home, this is the best option for you.
