You can’t go overboard with safety when it comes to fire hazards.
I lived in an apartment years ago where we didn’t even have fire extinguishers in each unit.
Nowadays I couldn’t even fathom being in a building that didn’t have some kind of fire extinguisher inside the room. It would be a major risk for all of the tenants in the building if one single tenant didn’t have access to a fire extinguisher. Sometimes you start a fire while you’re cooking by accident you just need a fire extinguisher to put it out. This can prevent the whole building from going up in flames. There are other things besides ovens and stovetops that could cause fires in homes. Space heaters are notorious for being fire hazards over time. That’s why a lot of the newer space heaters come with safety features on them to make sure that they are less likely to be a fire hazard. One of the most common safety features you see in most space heaters these days is a tip over switch. The tip over switch on a space heater is constantly activated as long as the space heater is sitting on its base. The second it gets displaced from its sitting position, the tip over switch disengages and the entire unit turns off. The space heater loses electricity and power as soon as it starts to tip. That way the coils can’t hit the floor and start a fire. Another safety feature on space heaters is an overheated fuse. These determine if the space heater has been left on too long and is at risk of overheating itself.
