Gwangju Gwangsan Fire Station Supply 'Fire Alarm' Fully Fulfills Its Role

Heard Residential Fire Alarm and Reported... Prevented Major Damage

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The fire alarm supplied by the fire station played its role well by preventing major damage.

According to Gwangsan Fire Station in Gwangju on the 29th, a fire broke out at a house in Usan-dong at around 9:42 PM the previous day.

At the time, the resident was away from the house, and it is known that a nearby resident who heard the alarm from the fire detector reported the fire.

There were no casualties, but property damage amounting to 3,131,000 KRW occurred.

The fire alarm that operated during this fire was reported to be a fire alarm that was distributed free of charge by Gwangsan Fire Station in 2017.

A residential fire alarm is a firefighting device that detects smoke and sounds an alarm to notify the occurrence of a fire. Along with fire extinguishers, it is a mandatory firefighting facility to be installed in homes.

Chief Song Seonghun said, “Prevention and initial response are very important in fires,” and added, “I hope everyone installs residential firefighting facilities to protect their homes and precious families from fire.”

Meanwhile, Gwangsan Fire Station has distributed residential firefighting facilities free of charge to 14,692 households from 2015 to last year, and plans to supply them to 2,800 households this year as well.
