endnotes Fires Spread Faster in Today's Homes


With the many advancements made in constructions and manufacturing, you’d think house fires would be less flammable. They’re not. Underwriters Laboratories (UL) finds that fires spread quicker in homes today than they did 30 years ago.


The UL says the reason lies in the fabrics we use. Today’s furnishings—pillows, furniture, carpeting


and clothing—are more likely to be made from synthetic or petroleum products, which burn quicker than natural materials. In a UL test, a room furnished with modern products went up in flames in less than three minutes. The same room furnished with 50-year-old products took half an hour to burn.


The best furnishings your home can have, fire officials say, are sprinklers and smoke alarms. Now is the perfect time to change the batteries in every smoke detector in your home, and make sure you have a sufficient number of devices located in the right areas. At the minimum, place one detector on every level of your home, and inside and outside of every bedroom. For more information, visit www.nfpa.org.
