A firefighter caught in a room involved in a flashover has very little time before the room temperatures cause gear failure that will result in serious burn injuries and or death. Your escape time from a room involved in a flashover is about 0.5 to 2 seconds. This equates to about a distance of 1.5 meters (5 feet) as the average firefighter can crawl about 0.75 meters per second (2.5 feet)

Therefore the best defenses against being caught in a flashover fire are:
- Be aware of structural conditions that can lead to a flashover.
- Be aware of environmental warning signs of a pending flashover.
- Use proper search techniques to avoid disorientation.
- Note any secondary means of egress in case of an emergency.
- be on the end of a charged line!
