Learn the proper techniques for dealing with kitchen fires: Step 1: Turn off the burner and get everybody out of the kitchen. Step 2: Stay clear of water. Pouring water on burning grease will instantly evaporate the water, causing tiny oil droplets to disperse throughout your kitchen and spread the fire everywhere. Step 3: Remove the oxygen by using a non-glass lid or baking sheet (for stove-top fires): Cover the pan with a metal lid or metal baking sheet. The fire will quickly consume the remaining oxygen and then peter out. OR Use salt or baking soda (for oven fires). Step 4: If you can’t get the flames extinguished, call 911 immediately and get out of the house. Call A&A Fire and Safety TODAY!
