House fires are a catastrophic event that take years from which individuals take to recover. More than 300,000 occur annually, causing many homeowners from Avon Lake to Mentor to consider how best to obtain protection for their home and family from the damaging effects of house fires. Common causes can be prevented with cautious actions, such as blowing out candles when leaving a room, never leaving a fireplace or cooking meal unattended, not overloading electrical circuits, cleaning the clothes dryer’s air ducts regularly, keeping space heaters away from flammable objects, like curtains and furniture, and always keeping a fire extinguisher available. While these steps help prevent house fires, electricity is constantly running through wires and normal wear and tear can lead to an electrical short that may spark.
The R-value is used in building and construction to measure the ability of an object to resist the conductive flow of heat. Insulation with a high R-value provides thermal insulating properties that create a barrier of protection against heat and flames. The protected walls, ceiling, and floors cannot burn, allowing extra time for those inside to safely escape. EcoTec Insulation and Construction can fireproof any commercial or residential building by installing AirKrete insulation, which is not only fireproof, but also a soundproof, mold and pest resistant, environmentally friendly, and non-allergenic insulation. AirKrete insulation’s valuable features help to increase a home’s resale value while lowering heating bills by keeping the hot and cold air where it’s supposed to be, allowing everyone from Solon to Middleburg Heights who calls this local insulation company to take advantage of the benefits of AirKrete Insulation. FDNY Firefighter Crowley had this to say:
“It wasn’t a miracle the fire never, spread, it was AirKrete!”
