Today, I bought a fire extinguisher.
The previous one had been in use for about 15 years, so its service life had expired.
Since we rarely use fire extinguishers, it’s easy to forget to replace them.
However, I’ve heard that many households don’t even have a fire extinguisher.
I think it’s necessary to have one in a detached house, and I often wonder why some people don’t.
But since common sense differs from person to person, I searched online for the “percentage of households with fire extinguishers.”
I was surprised to learn that only 41% of standard homes have one.
This made me realize that not having a fire extinguisher might be considered normal for many.
For those who don’t have one, I wonder—what would you do in the event of a fire?
今日は消火器を買って来た。
元の消火器は15年くらい経っていたので、使用期限は超えていた。
消火器などは普段使わないので、ついつい買い忘れてしまう。
でも、消火器を置いていない家も結構あるらしい。
一軒家では必須と思うが、なぜ、置かないのかと不思議に思う。
でも、常識って人それぞれ違うので、「消火器の保有率」をググってみた。
そうすると、驚くことに一般家庭の消火器の保有率は約41%とのこと。
とすると、置かない方が常識なのかも知れない。
置かない家で火事になったら皆どうするのだろうか。
