How to Prevent Office Fires

Fire hazards are present most average offices, however, there are steps one can take to fire proof an office and prevent fires from happening even if your budget does not allow hiring a professional to do the job.

Best Heat Gun

Preparation for danger situations is a key factor in fire safety. All employees should know fire escape routes, how to activate the fire alarm, the locations of stairway exits, and practice fire drills periodically.

Best Heat Gun

Combustible materials such as paper should be stored properly, and should not be stacked up. Properly install sprinkler systems and fire detectors in the storage area. It is recommended that storage areas are located away from heat sources.

Typical office equipment such as copiers, coffee makers and hot plates, are often overlooked as a potential heat-generating fire hazards. It is important to keep them away from anything flammable. Additionally, be mindful of the condition this equipment is kept in. Poor quality or defective appliances have a bigger chance of developing electrical shorts leading to shock hazards and fires.

Office fires can start as a result of electricity malfunction or misuse. Properly maintaining the electrical system provides maximum safety and is an important step in fire prevention. Be careful not to overload electrical outlets and minimize the use of extension cords. Avoid running extension cords across walkways as it can pose a potential tripping hazard. If there is no other option tape it to the floor.

Smoke detectors are you first line of defense, and should be properly installed and maintained frequently. Be sure to test smoke detectors and replace the batteries as needed. It is also recommended to install an office sprinkler system to fight fire as soon as it ignites. Fire extinguishers are another important to have on hand even if you have a sprinkler system. Acquire and maintain a sufficient number of extinguishers and make sure that everybody who works in your office knows where the extinguishers are installed and how to properly operate them.

Vacuum Cleaner Technology Compared

There are as many types of vacuum cleaners as there are people who have different kinds of needs for them. When you are comparing vacuum cleaners, you will undoubtedly uncover the advantages and flaws of each one, but you will usually choose by brand name. Vacuum cleaner manufacturers are constantly trying to outdo each other by coming up with better ways to make cleaning chores easier.

Best Heat Gun

.The vacuum cleaning machine was born to remove dirt from floors and rugs. The suction that occurs in a vacuum is the result of low pressure being produced inside the hose, producing a reverse pressure to "suck" things up.

Best Heat Gun

Small and lightweight dust particles are the main forms cleaned up by a vacuum cleaner..The major technology comes in when the machine must trap and collect the dirt that is sucked in.

Following are types of machines sorted by technology:

Conventional vacuums - Common commercial and home vacuums (upright and canister) suction dirt and collect it in a bag or container (bagless). .Most have agitator brushes to pull the deep dirt out of carpets . These have electric motors of varying strengths.

Wet/dry vacuums - .These are more commonly known as "shop vacs", and can clean up wet or dry spills safely..Many can also be used as "blowers " when used in reverse.

Backpack vacuums - These kinds can be carried around to different areas for convenient transport and cleaning. As the name implies,Back Pack vacuum cleaners are strapped to one's back and are made for ease of use so as not to cause strain to the user.

:Central Vacuum Cleaners - These are heavy duty machines that actually part of the building's construction, such as the heating system, with hose outlets in each room that connects to a main large vacuum machine, usually located in the home's basement. Dirt disposal can done at longer intervals because of the large collection bag.These cleaners have stronger suction compared to the rest.

Robots - The newest addition to the vacuum army are robots.They are the ultimate time and labor saver, as all you need do is program it and empty the bin.. It can do cleaning by itself after that.

Gun Safes and Home Safes - What You Need to Know Before Purchasing

Gun safes are like garages, it does not matter how big you get them, you always find yourself wanting more space. That's because the main reasons for owning a gun safe, theft protection and fire protection, apply to many other things in your home. The secure nature of a gun safe make them perfect for jewelry, documents, coin collections, and other storable valuables. The fire resistance of a Gun Safe make them perfect for storing family photos or heirlooms. When safe shopping think ahead to other things in your house that you or another family member may want to protect.

Best Heat Gun

Most gun safes list their capacity by the number of guns they can hold. This number may be a variable based on the different interior options of the safe or a single number which usually is the most from all interior options. This number may be true if all your guns are slim such as shotguns or scopeless lever actions. Often times one scoped bolt action rifle will use the space the manufacturer allowed for two guns in the safe. (unless you are willing to jam guns together like a jigsaw puzzle) This is true for all gun safe makers so we suggest taking the manufacturers capacity and reducing it by a quarter to a third to get a "real world" capacity of a safe.

Best Heat Gun

Often two safes of the same size and appearance will carry vastly different prices. The first reason for this difference is the amount of steel in the safe. Safes manufactured from thin steel and composites (two layers of thin steel sandwiching a fire resistant board) may appear solid and carry just a good fire rating as safes made from heavy gauge or plate steel. They will not, however, be as secure as their heavier counterparts and may be vulnerable to being "axed" open.
Pay attention to the listed weight of the safes you are examining. Weight can't be faked, plate steel safes will be far heavier then composite ones. You can also rap on the door with your knuckles, a composite door will have a "hollow" ring. Quality safes will also carry a UL listed label. To be listed the safe will have passed the Underwriters Laboratories test which consists of giving common burglary tools such as crowbars and drills to experienced safecrackers and giving them thirty minutes to enter the safe. If they enter the safe in that time period the safe fails.

The second reason similar looking safes may vary greatly in price is fire rating. More expensive safes usually carry better fire ratings. The fire rating is most often found on a label on the inside edge of the door. The rating will list two temperatures and a time. For example 1200 degrees, 30 minutes, 325 degrees. In this example the temperature the safe was exposed to was 1200 degrees and after 30 minutes of exposure the maximum recorded internal temperature was 325 degrees. No safe is truly fire proof, if exposed to fire temperatures for long enough the internal temperature of the safe will rise to equal the external temperature and any combustible valuables will be lost. However the nature of a house fire is to rise in temperature drastically and then fall off fairly quickly as nearby combustible material is consumed. Every fire pattern is different and there are never any guarantees but a safe with a better rating could well preserve its contents that would have been lost with a lesser safe.

There are two types of finishes found on gun safes. A textured paint finish or a glossy "car paint" type finish. The textured finishes are sprayed on in a single layer while it may take twenty or more layers of paint to achieve the smooth glossy "car paint" finish. The extra labor involved in building a glossy safe increases their cost at retail by up to several hundred dollars for a same sized safe.

Glossy finishes are most often selected for safes that will be on display in rooms such as living rooms or offices. They show dust and fingerprints very quickly so you will have to clean them regularly if you want them to look their best. Textured finish safes take much less care to look attractive.

If your safe will be in an unheated room or garage, or in an area of high humidity it is recommended that you install a dri-rod or use desiccant packs in your safe. The dri-rod is a small heater that installs on the inside of the safe. It provides a small amount of heat to the interior of the safe to keep rust and mildew off your guns and valuables. It is powered by electricity, a small hole is drilled in the safe near its bottom, (pre-drilled by manufacturer on most safes) just big enough for the electrical cord to pass through. Desiccant packs are large packs of silica gel that absorb moisture from the air. Over time they lose their effectiveness and will need to be replaced or dried in a oven.

A big part of protecting your valuables from rust and mildew is to keep moisture from entering the safe in the first place. Firearms wet from use in the field should be dried thoroughly before returning them to your safe. Anything else stored in the safe should also be dry before storage. If your safe is in an area that may be subject to flood or seepage install it raised off the floor high enough to be above any entering moisture.

Think carefully about your current and future needs when making your purchase. A gun or home safe is not an inexpensive investment, and once purchased it is likely to be with you for a long time.

If you're looking for some excessive sweating treatments, there are plenty of them out there, it's just a matter of finding the ones that work best for you. In dealing with a condition like excessive sweating, otherwise known as Hyperhidrosis, you really got to bring out the big guns. The best way of tackling the issue is to stack a bunch of treatments ontop of one another so that their effects compound and multiply, rather than just relying on one or two tactics. To that end, here are a few excessive sweating treatments for you to try.

Best Heat Gun

1. Shave your underarms

Best Heat Gun

When you shave your underarms, you will cut down on the amount of bacteria that can grow down there and consequently reduce odor and sweating.

2. Wear natural breathable clothes

By wearing fibres that are 100% cotton or wool and not unnatural like polyester or silk, you will allow your skin to breathe properly. This alone can drastically reduce your sweating.

3. Wear light colored clothing

Darker clothes attract heat and cause you to sweat more. Whether that heat be from the sun or indoor lighting, wearing lighter colors will help you stay cool.

4. Watch your diet

By eating foods which are hot and spicy you may promote excessive sweating, cut back on these foods.

5. Lose weight

Fat gets in the way of your body's ability to regulate it's temperature. The whole reason why you sweat is to regulate your temperature so anything that impedes that is going to only cause more sweating! Losing weight is one of the most effective sweating treatments, it also has the side benefit of making you sexier and healthier.

6. Use an antiperspirant

This goes without saying, but an antiperspirant can reduce sweating by around 20%. Try out a bunch of different types in order to find what works best for you. If you can find Certain Dri or Driclor though, these are some of the best over the counter antiperspirants you can get.

Easy Heat AHB-016 Cold Weather Valve and Pipe Heating Cable, 6-Feet Overview

Temperature-controlled cable runs straight along pipe and valves, held in place by application tape and plugs into grounded electrical outlet. Keeps water flowing down to -380. For odd lengths of pipe over 3/4-inch in diameter, we recommend two separate cables on opposite sides of the pipe with up to 3-feet of overrun at center of pipe run. Metal pipe requires 1/2-inch fiberglass insulation around cable. For plastic pipe, its recommended wrapping pipe with aluminum foil before cable installation. The traditional resistance cable produces a fixed amount of heat based on the electrical line feed. It comes with a built-in thermostat that switches the flow of electricity on and off based on temperature. Cable installs fast and easy. Each package contains grounded plug, built in thermostat and instructions. Cable has weather resistant PVC outer jacket and inner insulation. Keeps water flowing down to 40 F.
