All
public places must have exit signs and they are usually
red. They are located high on the wall and direct you to
an exit. These signs are usually lighted or will glow in
the dark. This is so you can find the door even when the
room is dark.
The word exit means "a way to get out" you should have
tow ways out (exits) where ever you are. Remember that
in public places exits must be doors but in homes the
bedroom window can be the 2nd exit.
When you go to a place that you have never been before,
you should look around the room up high for the exit
signs so that you know at least 2 ways out if there is
an emergency. Exit signs are not over elevators because
elevators are not safe to take in an emergency.

Signs
And Power Consumption |
|
|
Exit signs that have earned the good companies
operate on five watts or less per sign, compared to standard signs, which use as
much as 40 watts per sign.
When installed throughout a building, qualified exit signs can save hundreds or
even thousands of dollars in energy and maintenance costs. One sign alone can
save about $10 annually on electricity costs and can last up to 10 years without
a lamp replacement, compared to less than one year for an incandescent.
