What does 1/2 hour fire protection mean?
322555
when i bought safe fire security was not one of my main problems. what i wanted was somewhere to secure my passport and a few papers. but i supposed that it meant that if a fire occurred in my home then the safe would protect paper contents for at least 1/2 hour. that as i have already said did not concern me.

HI, this means that your valuables inside this fire chest should be safe for approx 1/2 hour depending on the intensity of the fire. Hope that helps!

Most fire extinguishers carry a UL rating. Most states require extinguishers to be UL listed before they can be sold to the public. "UL" stands for Underwriters Laboratory, a worldwide organization that researches and tests the safety of a variety of objects, including fire extinguishers. UL fire extinguisher ratings fall into two classes: Class A and Class B:C. A fire extinguisher typically carries both classes on its UL label. A UL rating may look like: 4A:60B:C. Class A refers to the amount of water the extinguisher is equivalent to; one "A" is equal to 1.25 gallons of water. The B stands for the square footage the extinguisher can handle when operated by a professional. The C indicates that the extinguisher can be used on electrical equipment.

No idea. We haven't had a fire so I couldn't tell you. If it got so bad that it melts the electronics, I would assume you could get a new one sent from Sentry, hook back up and use whatever new code that came with the lock.

I'm not sure. I'm a firefighter/EMT so the 7 1/2 are easier for me to handle and use.

It depends on length of the run as well. Look online and there are good resources to help you determine if 1/2" is adequate for your job. I decided against using it at my house because I am in lightening alley in Florida and I did not like the pictures I found of appropriately grounded hose getting blown out.

I saw this alarm on a news program as the most reliable smoke detector available. I gave one to each of my kids, they've never had to be used so I cannot answer your question, I am very sorry.

My firepot holds about 6 ounces and it burns for about 1 1/2 hours. The flame will make a crackle noise every once in a while but it is mostly silent.

As I cannot answer how it does in a fire (not had that happen), and can only comment that the company claims it is good up to I believe an hour in fire, with the moisture, I added a pack of silica to take care of moisture and the items I have stored in the safe are fine. There is amble room in the safe. I have several cd's, dvd's, money, a will, some documents, etc. It is very heavy, so if your not going to be moving it around it's good. I like it and it gives me peace of mind to think my item's are pretty safe. I hope this was helpful.

From what I understand it is for a short period of time..but there is no insulation on the inside to speak of...to get the fire safe version you need to shell out a few hundred more..

I don't know. I asked questions at a recent safety fair to local firefighters. They gave me a sheet with explanations of the types of fire alarms and the features of each one. I am not sure what model was in our home, but do know it was standard, builder-grade and was hard-wired with a battery back-up.

No more than 1 1/2 to 2 minutes minutes! It gets pretty hot! But depending on what your tolerance is...more or less

The package insert and box state only that it is UL rated for 30 minutes and do not elaborate further. The box states that it can safely protect digital media. Not much information provided with the safe. I use this safe in the bottom of another UL 1 hr fire safe as another barrier against heat and water.

There is no indication it is fire resistant. If it was, it would say so, either on the product or the product information.

The stated time to withstand 1700 degree heat as mentioned in advertisement is one hour
