FIRE DANGER.

 

This was received from a friend in the home insurance business. It is well

worth reading. This is one of those emails that if you didn't send it, rest

assured someone on your list will suffer for not reading it.

 

The original message was written by a lady whose brother and his wife

learned a hard lesson this past week. Their house burned down....nothing

left but ashes. They have good insurance so the home will be replaced and

most of the contents. That is the good news.

 

However, they were sick when they found out the cause of the fire. The

insurance investigator sifted through the ashes for several hours. He had

the cause of the fire traced to the master bathroom. He asked the

sister-in-law what she had plugged in the bathroom. She listed the normal

things....curling iron, blow dryer.

 

He kept saying to her, " No, it was something that would disintegrate at high

temperatures " . Then the sister-in- law remembered she had a Glade Plug-In in

the bathroom. The investigator had one of those " Aha " moments.

 

He said that was the cause of the fire and that he has seen more home fires

started with the plug-in type room fresheners than anything else. He said

the plastic for these is a THIN plastic. He also said that in every case

there was nothing left to prove that it even existed.

 

When the investigator looked in the wall plug, the two prongs left from the

plug-in were still in there. The sister-in-law had one of the plug-ins that

had a small night light built in it. She said she had noticed that the light

would dim and then finally go out. She would walk in to the bathroom a few

hours later, and the light would be back on again. The investigator said

that the unit was getting too hot, and would dim and go out rather than just

blow the light bulb. Once it cooled down it would come on. That is a warning

sign.

 

The investigator said he personally wouldn't have any type of plug-in

fragrance device anywhere in his house. He has seen too many homes that

have been burned down due to them.

" When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in

society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system

that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it. "
