Theoretically, it is relatively cooler, in the practical sense that ventilation, and other firefighting efforts/techniques would render that kind of area in the house a bit more favorable in reducing the factors that would put the safe at risk of the full force of a fire in a structure...HooG19 wrote:I have to ask...stevie_d_64 wrote: Thats why I recommend putting the safe up on blocks sandwiched with width and depth of two pieces of 3/8 plywood...Set it up on that just in case of a potential flood, if that is a risk in your area...And in a room against an outside wall near a window...
Just my recommendation...
Why on an outside wall and near a window?
I figure my house would burn to the slab in about 20-25 minutes...The only thing I figure I'll see standing will be the safe...
As long as the wife, the dog and I are safe...You got to love the odds...
All I'm saying is that the more pre-planning you do in finding a good place for a gunsafe the better...And I am sure everyone does that already...I only introduce a few things to consider, if at all possible, to help utilize it in the best manner possible...Not everyones situation is the same...
I talked with my vendor and the manufacturer at length about some of these ideas...And they liked the ideas...
Of course they were extremely happy I actually bought the dirn thing in the end...
