Do you know that the best place to put your fire extinguisher is not under the rug in the boot of your car? You need to install it where it is easily accessible in case of fire. Install it right under the passenger seat

Why do you still pour fuel in your generator without putting it off?
When last did you service the extinguisher in your offices/homes?
Why do you still use your phone in fuel stations?

Do you have a fire extinguisher in your home, car or office?

If yes, when last did you check it or ask a professional to help you check it, to be sure it is in a good state.

REMEMBER!
If your clothes catch on fire:
Stop what you’re doing
Drop to the ground and cover your face if you can
Roll over and over or back and forth until the flames go out. Running will only make the fire burn faster
THEN:
Once the flames are out, Call for medical attention

When your air conditioner is not regularly maintained, it runs the risk of becoming faulty and catching fire. This could be as a result of worn-out filters that accumulate with dirt, and dust particles resulting in the malfunctioning of your system. Call us on 112 or 08032003557
If you have a split-unit AC and are going out for any length of time, it is best to switch it off from the wall and completely unplug it from the socket. Don’t just use the remote control to switch it off. Unplug it completely.
