Mouse's Day of Safety

Mouse could not go to the safety conference again today.  Dad has to take Mouse tomorrow or he will miss out on all the fun!  Dad asked Mouse to spend the today inspecting the fire safety equipment at the hotel.  Hotels are built to be very safe, so they have lots of things to protect people from fires.

Mouse inspects a pull station.  They are located at every exit on every floor so that hotel employees and visitors can alert the entire hotel if they see a fire. 

Mouse inspects a fire hose.  The hotel keeps fire hoses in many places to help firemen put out fires. 

Mouse inspects a smoke detector, emergency light, and fire warning strobe light.  Every hotel room has a smoke detector to warn of any sign of a fire.  If the hotel employees want to warn people about a fire they can just press a button and lights and alarms sound to tell people to evacuate. 

Mouse inspects a sprinkler.  Every room in the hotel has a sprinkler head.  They have a liquid filled fusible link (bulb) that bursts if it gets too hot.  When the link bursts, it allows water to spray out of the sprinkler head and into the room to extinguish the fire.
