We at TLC Fire know that fires can be devastating. Starting in an instant it can destroy your business or home in just a few minutes. Fires have unlimited destructive power and kills more people every year than any other force of nature. In South Africa at least 1400 people die in fire-related incidents each year. However, we have much more power over fires than we think and many deaths and property damage can be prevented with the right equipment and training.
