FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. – If a fire broke out in your home, would you know what to do?
Next month is National Fire Safety Month, and we want to help you be prepared!
Join us at our next Go 4 it event, “Be Fire Safe,” to learn fire safety and how to reduce the chances of a fire starting in your home.
We’ve partnered with the Farmington Hills Fire Department and the City of Farmington Hills to offer free training on Tuesday, Sept. 23, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Hawk - the City of Farmington Hills’ Recreation and Arts Venue
The training sessions last about 30 minutes each. During those sessions, you’ll discover the hidden fire dangers in your home, learn how to make an escape plan for your family and your pets, learn how to check your smoke alarms, and learn how to handle all the lithium-ion batteries in your home to prevent fires.
Many of the electronics in our homes -- smartphones, tablets, power tools, lawn tools, laptops, e-cigarettes, headphones, and toys -- are powered by lithium-ion batteries, and they can overheat, start a fire, and explode. You’ll receive guidance on how to handle those with caution and care.
