A hotel is essential for a business trip. Hotels often use a lot of combustible materials for interior decoration; building structures are prone to chimney effect, which causes fires to spread rapidly along shafts and ventilation pipes, endangering the entire building; hotels use electricity, fire, and gas equipment, plus hotel guests Low awareness of firefighting, random use of fire, bedridden smoking, etc., cause many fires. So once the hotel happensFire can easily cause a vicious accident of mass deaths and injuries.
Therefore, the safety of staying in the hotel is the first, and a few essential fire fighting knowledge must be firmly grasped.
Hotel fire knowledge
1. Familiar with the environment
After you have checked into the hotel, you must first find out the direction of the evacuation passage stairs and your room, the location of the safety exit, the location of the alarm, fire extinguisher, etc. , The floor plan of the hotel, clearly indicating the location of the room and the location of the nearest fire exit. In the event of a fire, you can quickly escape from the scene of the fire.
2. Prevent smoke
Once you find a fire, you must not open the door to watch, because convection of hot and cold air is easy to form during a fire, which will make the fireworks blow your face. The best way at this time is to quickly soak the sheets, towels, etc. with water to block the gaps in the door to prevent smoke from entering, and then cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel and wait for rescue.
Most hotels will place gas masks and other survival tools in the guest rooms. Our hotel has placed two sets of gas masks and a flashlight in the guest room closet, which can play an important role when a fire occurs.
3. Evacuate in time
This is mainly to follow the verbal guidance and broadcast guidance of the hotel staff. You must not be self-righteous and evacuate blindly without listening to advice. Because modern hotels have waiters and firefighters who have received good firefighting and psychological education.
4. Self-help
Many hotels, especially those in developed countries, are equipped with fire self-rescue descent devices and self-rescue ropes. When checking in, you should ask the attendant about the location and usage methods. Once a fire occurs, you can quickly escape. At the same time, the fire-fighting hardware facilities of general high-rise hotels are also relatively complete. For example, the stairwells are smoke-proof or enclosed, and they are not far from the room you live in. As long as you enter the stairwell quickly, most of them can survive. Once you are out of danger, remember Do not return to the fire scene.
5. Evacuate in time
If it wasn't for your own room to catch fire, your own room is generally the best place to refuge. As long as you don’t open the doors and windows to let the smoke in, it will take a while for the fire to burn through the guest room door. Someone will come to rescue you after such a long time. At the same time, the toilets, stairs and the evacuation room at the end of the bag-shaped corridor in the hotel are also good places for evacuation.
6. Familiar with fire protection facilities
Hotel fire-fighting facilities are generally complete and equipped to comply with relevant safety requirements. However, if we are not sure about the role of these equipment and facilities, it will not only cause damage to related facilities and equipment, but also affect the normal use of their functions. Generally speaking, the common facilities and equipment in the room mainly include smoke detectors, water sprays, gas masks, and emergency flashlights. These facilities and equipment play a life-saving role at critical moments, so special attention should be paid when moving in.
Special reminder is, don't be curious about using cigarettes to test the smoke sensor. In addition, there are many people who like to hang clothes on the sprinkler, but they don't know that this situation is very easy to break the glass bubble on the sprinkler and cause the water spray to start. This kind of behavior not only bears the legal responsibility for destroying fire-fighting facilities, but also compensates for the losses caused thereby.
7. Waiting for rescue
If you are surrounded by smoke and fire, don't panic, let alone jump off the building blindly. Be cautious, stay in your own room, stand on a window or balcony to shout, or knock on metal objects, throw soft objects, and wave a flashlight or white cloth to attract the attention of rescuers at night. As long as you can remember these simple methods, even in the face of the fire, you will be able to survive.
Today's hotels, whether it is a four-star/five-star high-end hotel or a business/fast hotel, are all focusing on service quality and want to provide guests with a warm and safe staying experience as much as possible. Therefore, you can communicate with the hotel staff at any time if you have any problems during your stay, such as clothes that need to be dried. I believe the staff will be able to solve such problems for you. But you must remember not to make some improper decisions rashly. It is very possible that a small negligence of yours will bring you huge troubles and even threaten your life and the lives of others.
Whether it’s a trip or a business trip, wherever we go, safety must be our first guarantee.
Go out happily and return safely...
