The four major types of fires which occur in mobile homes are: smoking fires, heating fires, cooking fires, and electrical fires. The United States Fire Administration estimates that 15,000 mobile home fires cause about 500 casualties and $60 million in direct property losses annually. In an attempt to reduce the number of fire incidents and fatalities resulting from mobile home fires, HUD introduced the Federal Mobile Home Construction and Safety Standard which requires that mobile homes meet certain fire safety standards. It is expected that HUD's fire safety measures will reduce the risks associated with mobile home fires.
