If possible, keep a window cracked open while the fire is burning.Be certain the damper or flue is open before starting a fire. Keeping the damper or flue open until the fire is out will draw smoke out of the house. The damper can be checked by looking up into the chimney with a flashlight or mirror. Do not close the damper until the embers have completely stopped burning.Use dry and well-aged wood. Wet or green wood causes more smoke and contributes to soot buildup in the chimney. Dried wood burns with less smoke and burns more evenly,Smaller pieces of wood placed on a grate burn faster and produce less smoke.Clean out ashes from previous fires. Levels of ash at the base of the fireplace should be kept to 1 inch or less because a thicker layer restricts the air supply to logs, resulting in more smoke.The chimney should be checked annually by a professional. Even if the chimney is not due for cleaning, it is important to check for animal nests or other blockages that could prevent smoke from escaping.Make sure the area around the fireplace is clear of anything that is potentially flammable (ie: furniture, drapes, newspapers, books, etc.). If these items get too close to the fireplace, they could catch fire.

Answer:

Fire outbreak is a dangerous disaster.

Precautions to be taken are as follows:

  • Escape immediately from the place.
  • Use fire extinguisher.
  • Remove the cloth on the burnt skin.
  • Move to a place which is not affected by fire.
  • You can also move to a different room with no fire. You can do so by feeling the hotness of the door.
  • Help people caught.

By taking these precautions you can save yours as well as others life. 'A Friend in need is a friend in deed.'
