How to Prevent Your Desktop or Laptop Fire From Burning Down Your House

If you own a laptop or desktop computer, then read closely. Who would think that a laptop could catch fire.

The facts are surprising.

In 2007-2011, there were an estimated 730 reported U.S. home structure fires involving office equipment per year, resulting in:

• 11 civilian deaths per year
• 51 civilian injuries per year
• $28 million in direct property damage per year

48% of the time, a computer was the cause of the fire. So, what causes the fires?There are three main causes of desktop & laptop fires:

1. The ignition of wire or cable insulation or appliance housing or casing started one-third (36%) of the office equipment structure fires in homes
2. Heat from dust build-up in desktop computers
3. Overheated laptop batteries
