Pre-Fire Planning
What is a pre-fire plan?
Pre-fire planning is an important part of preparing for a fire, both from an owner’s perspective and from a firefighting perspective.
A pre-fire plan provides emergency services with information about your property so a more efficient and effective operation can be conducted, meaning less damage to your property and a better chance of a successful rescue. This document captures building characteristics, occupancy, protective features and hazards.
