I will be conducting a class early next year on the importance of wearing and SCBA at all structure fires. To illustrate this point, I would like to have a few common household items or building supplies that when burned will produce toxic fumes.
In addition to this, I would like to know what the toxin is and what it can do to you.
For example. Most houses have PVC piping, when PVC burns it produces a toxin known as ______. When you breathe this toxin it will do ____ to you.
I don't know if this will scare our members out of the department or not. My purpose is to let them know the firefighting is dangerous. Because of that, we have things like SCBAs to protect us.
Also, if you can think of similiar things that are toxic in a car when it burns. We don't get many car fires, but when we do, I want to make sure our guys and gals are safe.
