FIRE SAFETY FACTS

North America has one of the worst per-capita fire-death rates in the industrialized world. Did you know?

Between 1994 and 1998, an average of 4,400 people lost their lives and another 25,100 were injured annually as the result of fire.

Cooking is the leading cause of home fires, it is also the leading cause of home fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure of stoves or ovens.

Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths.

About 100 firefighters are killed each year in duty-related incidents.

Adults in the age group between 65 and 75 have a fire death rate twice that of the national average.

Between 60% and 65% of all fatalities occur in a home without a working smoke alarm.

Fires that are started by children playing with fire account for 8% of all fatal home fires.

There are an average of 2.1 million fires each year.

In 1996, $9.4 billion of property damage was caused by fire.

Each year, fire kills more North Americans than all natural disasters combined.

Senior citizens age 70 and over and children under the age of 5 have the greatest risk of fire death.

When smoke turns to flame, a fire can grow to 50 times its size in just 6 minutes.

Early detection can help save lives and could prevent complete destruction to everything you own. Protect your home with a smoke alarm.

Residential Fires

Every year, around 5,000 people die from residential fires, and 75% of those deaths are from inhaling smoke.

About 75% of all residential fires start on the ground floor.

In urban areas, cooking is the leading cause of residential fires, and smoking is the leading cause of fatal fires in most regions.

In 1996 (the latest year for National Fire Data Center records), there were 428,000 residential fires.

Your home is ten times more likely to have a fire than be burglarized.

The time of year when most fires and fire deaths are likely to occur is from December through March.

Fabric is the leading type of material ignited in fatal fires. (Wood and paper rank second.)
