South Burnett homes should be a lot “fire safer” following some generous donations by Downer, operators of the Meandu Mine.<\/p>\n

The corporation has donated a total of 875 fire blankets, used to extinguish kitchen fires, to community groups throughout the region.<\/p>\n

South Burnett CTC’s “Partners In Foster Care” received 100 fire blankets.<\/p>\n

Downer representative Chrys McDuffie said fire blankets had been given to groups in Blackbutt, Nanango and Murgon as well as Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

She said people who received the blankets should take care not to mount them above the stove – which is where the flames will be. Instead, they should be mounted on another wall in the kitchen where they would be handy to reach in an emergency.<\/p>\n

The fire blanket is pulled from its container and placed over the burning pan to starve the fire of oxygen.<\/p>\n

Partners In Foster Care acting team leader Amanda Tainton said the 100 fire blankets donated to her group would be given to foster carers.<\/p>\n

This is a situation where you should use a fire blanket .. if you put even a cup of water on an oil fire on a stove, left, it will explode into fierce flames; serious burns can also occur if you try to lift a burning pan off the stove; placing a fire blanket over the pot will extinguish the fire<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
