  • fire
    is a combustion or burning, in which substances combine chemically with oxygen from the air and typically give out bright light, heat, and smoke.
  • Fire is very useful, but it also has negative effects that includes hazard to life and property, atmospheric pollution, and water contamination
  • Electrical faults, such as faulty appliances, leads, wiring, or sockets.
    cause of fires
  • Cooking-related fires, such as burnt food, unattended cooking, or grease build up.

    cause of fire
  • Flammable and combustible materials, such as incorrect storage, usage, or disposal of them.

    cause of fire
  • Smoking, such as smoking around flammable materials, or disposing cigarette butts improperly.

    cause of fire
  • Heating, such as placing articles too close to heat sources, or using faulty heaters.

    what are stages of fire?
  • The developing or embryonic stage of fire is immediately after ignition. It means that the fire has just begun.

    what is incipient?
  • The growth stage occurs when the fire has established itself and burns self-sufficiently. We call this ‘established burning.’ Then, the fire generates enough heat to cause a positive heat feedback loop. Here, the fire uses its heat to cause the combustion of surrounding fuel sources.

    what is growth?
  • A fire is “fully developed” when it reaches its hottest point and engulfs all the available fuel sources. The fire’s intensity will likely decline unless its conditions change.

    what is Fully Developed?
  • A fire will enter its decay stage when it runs out of oxygen or fuel to sustain itself. This decay is the longest stage and can take weeks for larger fires
    what is decay?
  • Another danger of the decay stage is the potential for new oxygen or fuels to get to the fire. A sudden wind updraft or a falling tree branch may cause the fire to reignite.
    what is decay?
  • Fire hazards can have many acute and chronic effects on human health. These include

    effects of fire hazards
    • Burns and trauma.,
    • Mental health effects
    • Reproductive and immunological disorders
    • Social and financial disruption
    what are effects of fire hazards
  • Smoke produced by the fire can exacerbate asthma, bronchitis, and respiratory infections, and may cause increased incidence of heart disease.
  • eye, lung, throat irritation, hearth disease,asthma attacks,premature death

    wildfire pollusion harms health
  • smoke, water,sediment and soil pollusion,habitat degradation
    Negative effects of fires in the environment include
  • oxygen

    heat < fuel
    pyramid of fire
  • fuel, heat, and oxygen.
    For a fire to ignite and maintain combustion, three elements are needed:
  • When at least one of these is missing or is present but only at low levels, a fire can’t start or spread. That’s why one of the basic strategies for preventing fire is to isolate sources of fuel or heat. Removing oxygen from the equation is most of the time nearly impossible.
    fire safety measures
  • Avoid Electrical Overloading
    • Overloading your circuits is a big fire hazard—this is one of the most important fire safety reminders you shouldn't overlook
  • Fireproof Your Kitchen
    • Don't leave a gas stove on unattended
  • Keep Your Light Sources Secured
    • It's common for Filipinos to light candles or gasera (kerosene kamp) during a power outage
  • Practice Good Housekeeping Habits
    • Keep aisles, walkways, and stairways clear of any trash. Having clean and clear pathways at home or in the office can prevent the spread of fire
  • Install Smoke Alarms
    • Fires can happen anytime, so it's good to have smoke alarms in place to alert you when a fire breaks out
  • Get a Fire Extinguisher
    • Having a fire extinguisher at home or in the office doesn't directly prevent a fire, but it can surely help stop it from spreading
  • 1 Avoid Electrical Overloading

    4 Practice Good Housekeeping Habits
    5 Install Smoke Alarms
    6 Get a Fire Extinguisher
    What are the Top 10 Fire Prevention Tips to Remember?
    • Fire hazards can have many acute and chronic effects on human health. It also has a negative effect to the environment and can largely add air pollution.
    • Remember the “PASS” (pullaimsqueeze - sweep) whenever you’ll be needing to use a fire extinguisher.
