Residential fires are the most common type of conflagration. Statistics from
2009-2013 show that occurrences of single-family residential fires are the
highest in the building fire category, followed by multi-family residential fires.
In 2013, single-family residential fires placed first with 476 fires, comprising
42.9% of all building fires; multi-family residential fires placed second with
193 fires, constituting 17.4% of all building fires. Early detection stands as
one of the best measures to prevent casualties from residential fires. It greatly
assists in the processes of fire extinguishing, evacuation, reporting and other
necessary adaptive abilities. Most domestic residential buildings below five
stories lack automatic fire detection and alert systems. Residential fire alarm
systems are still not common. To decrease the occurrences of accidental
household fires, the National Fire Agency of the Ministry of the Interior has
been collaborating with the fire departments of each municipality, county, and
city to actively promote the policy of installing residential fire alarms. Paired
with government-related promotional activities, this article seeks to increase
overall awareness regarding the functions and regulations of residential fire
alarms, as well as the importance and necessity of fire prevention measures.

住宅火災死亡人數不減 政府推行住宅用火災警報器
近年來，在內政部消防署及各直轄市、縣（市）政府消防局的努力之下，我們可以從圖1「98

年到102年總火災件數與建築物火災件數比較」的圖表了解，火災總件數在98年到102年間大幅地減
少，但是建築物火災件數卻一直居高不下，平均都仍在1,000多左右的件數，約占火災總件數的6成
到7成左右。
