Replacement Considerations:
1. Fire blankets should be replaced after use in a fire due to potential damage from the high temperatures.
2. Even if a fire blanket has not been used, consider replacing it if you notice any signs of wear and tear, such as fraying, holes, or visible damage to the material. a damaged fire blanket may not be effective in extinguishing a fire.
3. While fire blankets do not have a definitive expiry date, replacing them every 7-10 years for safety or earlier if the blanket shows any signs of damage is recommended.
