You can, but…firefighters wear a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) that works exactly like a SCUBA rig for diving, except it doesn’t need the depth-compensating second stage regulator and feeds a heat resistant full-face mask.You can’t leave a fully-charged SCUBA rig in your desk drawer for years in case the building catches fire—it isn’t safe and might not work when you need it with regular inspection and maintenance, but also, such gear is heavy and bulky. SCBA is designed to let fire fighters enter and work for extended periods of time in an a toxic, smoke-filled atmosphere, but you should only be concerned with getting out.So what are your options:A homemade mask can be improvised from any peice of cotton fabric, preferably damp. I can’t imagine it will be very effective, but it’s probably better than nothing. Perhaps some of our Quora readers have experience to share?Similarly, and N-95 mask or surgical mask can be kept in a drawer for years, but will only filter particulates from the air. In a wood fire, that may save you from needing treatment for smoke inhalation—or at least reduce the damage. In a real building fire, it’s not going to do anything to protect from the toxic chemicals given off from burning plastic-based furnishings, but again, it’s surely better than nothing.For protection from toxic gases, you would need something with an absorptive cartridge—a painter’s respirator. These are available for specific chemical insults, but I would think the standard activated carbon filter sold in hardware stores would be ideal. But here’s the thing, these work by passing toxic gases through a bed of activated charcoal so it can absorb the toxins before you do. The carbon start absorbing pollutants (car exhausts, off gassing from paint and furnishings, your cologne or perfume) the instant it’s exposed to the air.So, if you pay $150 for a 3M Full Face respirator, open it up and adjust it to fit, and stick it in the drawer at work, it will be useless when you need it. Well, perhaps not useless. It will still offer excellent protection against particulates, but will be useless against toxins, as the absorptive cartridges will have long since become saturated.And I should point out that, if you have such a mask in a fire, you might be tempted to overestimate your protection. You should get out as quickly as practicable—period. You don’t want to end up in the ER with a commercial painter’s mask melted into the skin of your face.But if you are planning for a fire you hope never will occur, may I suggest looking into the market for rescue hoods? Several manufacturers now sell inexpensive, single use hoods designed specifically to cover your entire head and offer protecting during escape from a building fire. Many are made of heat-resistant, aluminized Kaptan with a sealed, built-in absorptive cartridge:Others come packed small enough to keep always in your airline carry-on bag:These are in most cases, probably cheaper and more protective than a bring-your-own mask made for some other purpose.

Most correctional officer recruit training includes fire safety and fire response. Training often includes utilization of some type of self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and how to utilize suppression equipment like extinguishers and pressurized water systems. All facilities will have an evacuation plan, and typically an annual inspection by the fire marshal for their jurisdiction. If the facility is accredited, there are quite a few standards and practices regarding fire safety and response which are mandatory. If the jail is in a rural area, they may be on their own containing a fire; in urban areas, the city fire department will respond to assist.Most jails won’t have much to burn in the way of building materials, which are primarily concrete and steel. But there’s still plenty to burn, books, letters, court paperwork, food items and their packaging, paint, fixtures, clothing, linen and mattresses can create smoke that is just as damaging to life and property as a full-on flame out.Life and safety is (or should be) the first consideration in a jail fire. Evacuation may not be as easy as following the procedure - what if the area planned for evacuation is full of smoke, or on fire too? How are you sure you have gotten everyone out? Once out, who needs to be kept separate from others? If evacuation goes beyond the secure perimeter of the facility, what security will be available? Facilities usually have drills several times a year to keep personnel in tune with variables that could occur in the case of an actual fire.I’ve been involved in several jail fires, fortunately, none too severe and with no injuries to anyone involved. A couple were deliberately set by inmates, but the majority came from things like defective lighting fixtures, driers left on in the laundry and small issues in the facility kitchen. One of the worst was a short in the electrical system that created a lot of smoke and evacuation of several floors of a high-rise facility. When something really happens, you see the value of the drills in the response. Which is good, because they don’t sell marshmallows on the commissary.
