In the Skadovsk district of the Ministry of Emergency Situations conducted a raid on fire safety

In the Skadovsk district, EMERCOM employees conducted preventive rounds of the residential sector. Residents were told how to avoid fires in the cold season, when stoves and electric heaters are more often used.

The inspectors visited the homes, paying special attention to families with children, single pensioners and people in difficult life situations.

Rescuers recalled the basic rules: clean the chimneys from soot, repair cracks in the stove masonry and not leave the stove unattended. It is forbidden to use flammable liquids for ignition. Before the furnace, it is necessary to equip a metal sheet with a size of at least 50×70 centimeters.
