Friend of mine might put a wood stove in his trailer. He's considering
safety factors, and what to do in case of fire.

Years ago, I considered it. Check with my insurance agent. The increased
insurance cost would have wiped out any heat savings.

As to fire protection. I've heard of folks put a wye on the laundry cold
faucet, and hang a garden hose in the laundry room. I figure with a
trailer fire, the steps are
1) get everyone out,
2) call fire dept, and
3) you have about thirty seconds to put out the fire before you're dead
in there.

Anyone else have experience to share?

I'd add a couple of more doors for escape to the outside also.


Get an Instant Door Anywhere Tool - aka shotgun.


Shaped charges of Semtex. O_o

TDD



Of course not.

Det cord. Course it may blow out the fire. Shrug


"The socialist movement takes great pains to circulate frequently new labels for its ideally constructed state.
Each worn-out label is replaced by another which raises hopes of an ultimate solution of the insoluble basic
problem of Socialism, until it becomes obvious that nothing has been changed but the name.
The most recent slogan is "State Capitalism."[Fascism] It is not commonly realized that this covers nothing more
than what used to be called Planned Economy and State Socialism, and that State Capitalism, Planned Economy,
and State Socialism diverge only in non-essentials from the "classic" ideal of egalitarian Socialism. - Ludwig von Mises (1922)
