In a perfect world, we would learn to properly maintain every potential fire hazard in the house. Our heaters would always be in perfect working order. We would never leave a flammable object close to the open flame of a stove.
Last week I was sitting at home caring for two children ages 4 and 18 months old. I am a live-in nanny and am responsible for the part-time care of these kids and their 3 older siblings who are school age. Normally I only work a few hours a week for the family, but this particular week, both parents had gone out of town on short notice so I found myself on child care duty 24/7.
Unfortunately, we don't live in a perfect world, and we often forget to take care of one small detail. The resulting fire damage is enough to change our lives forever. Accidents happen and there will always be a need to put these flames out.
However, make sure to get your score up. Have a few credit cards, actively use them, pay off all your balances on time. Take out small loans for larger purchases and pay them off. The longer you have good credit history the better your credit score will be.
Behind him I could see a neighbor lady, her kids in a stroller, with a concerned look on her face peering around the officer. I shut the door and went to inspect the various rooms of the home to see if I could smell anything inside.
Continuing their campaign to create a fire-safe America, the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) released materials regarding the proper maintenance of your fire alarms and sprinklers.
The USFA believes strongly that the routine maintenance of your fire alarm could protect more lives than just those of those in the home, and reducing fatalities from fire damage is the USFA's number one goal.
I hurried to grab shoes, the diaper bag, my computer, and snacks for the children. I went into the room where they were playing and took each of them by the hand and walked out of the house suddenly feeling like a homeless bag-lady with two small kids. The neighbor generously offered to let us come to her home while we waited for the response team to show up.
If residents are awoken at the first sign of danger, the chance of them getting out of the building safely increase dramatically. For this reason, the USFA wants you to install smoke alarms inside and outside of sleeping areas and on every floor of your home.
4. Compare Quotes Take all of the information that you have collected from the lenders and set them next to each other. The lenders should also have sent you a GFE (Good-Faith-Estimate) and a TIL (Truth in Lending). The TIL amortizes the costs of the loan over the life of the mortgage rate. It takes theses costs and adds them to the interest rates giving you your APR (Annual Percentage Rate).
Ultimately the fire fighters found the leak outside the home, checked the home to make sure it was safe to be inside, and called the gas company to come out and fix the line. (After their initial inspection of the leak on the day of, they didn't fix until a week later. But that's another story for another day.)
If there was one thing you did to fight fires at home, it should at least be the proper maintenance of your smoke alarms (and sprinkler systems if you have them).
General contractors in Salt Lake City are required to have some sort of Fire Alarm installed in every building that they construct. This is according to the laws and regulations that are inspected by a registered fire Marshall who comes and inspects every building that finishes construction.
