Two months into 2023, there have been 21 fire-related deaths, with one occurring in Bel Air last month. Office of the Maryland State Fire Marshal has released the TOP 5 FIRE SAFETY ESSENTIALS. Monthly testing of your smoke and CO alarms, practicing a home escape plan, and closing your bedroom door before you doze could save you and your family's life in a fire emergency.Fire Marshal Geraci reminds us that we need these TOP 5 Fire Safety Essentials to surviving a residential fire. Today house fires burn faster and hotter and are more deadly. We must all take the time and ensure that our home is fire safe.

#1.... First off we ask that you have a home escape plan that will allow you and your family members understand how to escape your residence. Knowing the two(2) ways out and coming together to ensure that everyone has escaped. NEVER go back in for any items.

#2.... We ask that you have working smoke alarms in your residence, and we request that each floor has a working alarm and that each bedroom is equipped with an alarm for early detection. YOU must test your alarm monthly and make sure that your children here the beep and understand what the alarm sounds like. As you sound the alarm, and you hear the beep move your feet to safety.

We ask that you inspect the alarm and if you find they are more that 10 years old they MUST be replaced. This includes HARDWIRED ALARMS as well. INSTALL 10 year sealed alarms. This will save your life.

#3.... Carbon Monoxide Alarms are required for your residence if you have any product that produces fossil fuels. If your residence is all electric, you will not need to install one. BUT if you have a gas fed or wood/pellet burning stove or an attached garage or carport we ask that you install the alarms.

#4.... CLOSE BEFORE YOU DOZE is a very important action that you can take when sleeping. Keeping fire at bay and out of the room you are in helps to keeping you safe. Precious moments will help save your life.

#5.... We ask that when the alarm sounds and you are leaving your residence due to fire that you close all of the doors as you leave the building. This will help control the fire and allow you to safely exit to your family's safe place. Meet as a group and report to the firefighters who are there to help if someone is not out of the building.

AND please do not go back into the fire. ONCE OUT STAY OUT....

If you need a smoke alarm, please reach out to your local fire station.

Fallston units are clearing the scene of reported dwelling fire. On arrival of Joppa Magnolia Volunteer Fire Company Chief Officer light smoke was found along the roof line. Upon crews investigating, it was determined that insulation had ignited during home improvement repairs. Thanks to the great work of responders the hazard was mitigated and homeowners are cleared to return to their home.
