🏠 Smoke Outside

Most home fires start inside. Smoke outside and install a sturdy, deep ashtray filled with sand or water away from the house structure.

🛌 Never Smoke in Bed

Mattresses and bedding are highly flammable. Never smoke while lying down, or if you are drowsy, medicated, or have been drinking.

💧 Put It Out, All the Way

Don’t walk away from a lit cigarette. Before throwing out butts and ashes, ensure they are completely cool. Soak them in water before binning them.

⚕️ Medical Oxygen Safety

Never smoke where medical oxygen is used. Medical oxygen can cause materials to ignite explosively. It is an immediate fire hazard.
