A fire broke out in a residential building in Chaozhou, killing four people. How to use fire safely in winter?

Because the weather is dry in winter, many places use heating equipment in winter, so winter is the high-risk season for fires. Therefore, we must pay more attention to prevention in winter, pay special attention to the safety of using fire, electricity and gas, and ask firefighters for help in time in case of fire. A fire broke out in a residential building in Anbu Town, Chaoan District. After receiving the call, local firefighters rushed to the scene at the first time. Through the joint efforts of many parties, the fire was put out in the early morning. Three people were rescued, but the fire still killed four people. Fire safety in winter is a thing that can't be ignored, especially where heating equipment is used, we must pay more attention to it. Remember to turn off the gas after use at ordinary times, and pay attention to the safety of electricity use.

First, pay attention to the safe use of heating equipment. There is central heating in the north, but not in the south in winter. It's cold in winter in the south, so many people use their own heating equipment. For example, use electric heaters, ovens, etc. However, there are certain security risks when using these devices. If you keep it on when you sleep, there is a possibility of fire, so it should be noted that when people leave or fall asleep, they must turn off the heater.

Second, pay attention to the safe use of gas. It's cold every day in winter, and many people close their doors and windows at home. In case of gas leakage, it will be even more dangerous. If there is a fire source, it may lead to gas poisoning and explosion of indoor personnel. Therefore, you must remember to turn off the gas after use, and always open the window for ventilation at home, and try not to smoke at home.

Third, pay attention to the safety of electricity use. The power of electrical appliances used in winter is relatively large, and the circuit may be short-circuited under high load, so we should also pay attention to the safety of electricity use in winter to prevent short-circuiting of the circuit. When using electricity, try not to turn on multiple high-power appliances at the same time, and always check the circuit safety. There is less rain in winter. For people living in rural areas, flammable items such as firewood should be kept indoors as far as possible.
