Fire Protection

While we were attending the FMCA Rally in Perry, GA in March, Doug realized we needed some fire protection in the motorhome. He ordered automatic extinguishers for in the engine compartment and the refrigerator compartment. The refrigerator is the leading cause of fire in motorhomes since it has the propane option. We also replanned our escapes from each area of the motorhome and practiced opening the escape windows.

In the first photo below, you are looking from the outside of the coach and it shows the new extinguisher mounted in the refrigerator compartment.



In the following photo, it shows the extinguisher that Doug mounted in the rear engine compartment. You are looking from behind and outside the coach over the engine to the fire extinguisher.



We hope we never have to use these, but if so then they will give us the extra time to get out safely.
