<div>Hi Nava,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>W would probably proceed as suggested by Iulian if we wanted curtains installed. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>FYI, we’ve placed these fire blankets at each of our emergency showers in the hopes that it will encourage people to use them if needed; we have not hung them as shower curtains. Our thinking is that a buddy or a member of staff could hold the blanket
up while the affected person is rinsing him/herself. The blanket could then be used by the affected person as they move out of the facility. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best,</div>
<div>Vito</div>

Can you modify a fire blanket (they come in different sizes, Amazon link below) to serve as a shower curtain?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning all, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A few months ago there was a discussion here (started by Julia I believe) about a safety shower curtain. We’ve adopted the idea enthusiastically after hearing of people going to the restroom instead of using the safety showers in other
labs on campus for the sake of privacy. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now, that we have two beautiful safety shower curtains installed in our clean room, our fire safety department is insisting we take them down as the curtains are not flame retardant. Has anyone faced this discussion and can share opinion/experience?
Anyone using a flame retardant safety shower curtain they can recommend? (quick web search didn’t come up with clean room compatible curtains).<o:p></o:p></p>
