We recommend an annual inspection on all Smoke Containment Bags. When conducting your inspection determine whether there are any tears or rips.

If so, we recommend immediate replacement. Does the zipper close properly? Note: Your bag ships with paraffin wax rubbed on to the zipper teeth. We recommend the bag owner repeat this annually to lubricate and protect the zipper and insure the smoothest possible operation.

WARNING: Handle overheating batteries and electronic devices at your own risk. Our Fire Containment Bags, Fire Containment Blankets, and Smoke Containment Bags are tough! They are designed to add another course of action in the event of an overheating battery. Our products are designed to greatly reduce the risk of bodily harm and property damage, but due to the unpredictable nature of battery fires, the multitude of battery types, and the possibility of human error, we cannot guarantee no harm or damage will result when using them. Once a product has been used to contain an overheating device please order a replacement immediately.

Please Note: We Recommend Storing Your Kit With Closure Flaps & Related Safety Equipment (Such As Gloves or Preventer Plus Bag) Inside The Orange Fire Containment Bag. If You Have Purchased An Add-On Preventer Plus Smoke Containment Bag, Always Store It With The Zipper Open.
