Dylai camau atal tân gael eu cymryd mewn ystafelloedd lle y mae tanau fwyaf tebygol o gychwyn. Gan y disgwylir i’r sigaréts sy'n llai tebygol o achosi tân leihau nifer y marwolaethau yn sgil tân mewn ystafelloedd gwely a lolfeydd, y gegin yw’r ystafell sy’n peri’r risg fwyaf. Mae rhai systemau ar gyfer ceisio diffodd tanau mewn cegin eisoes yn cael eu marchnata ac efallai y byddai modd eu hystyried at ddibenion rheoleiddio petai rhagor o dystiolaeth ar gael ynghylch eu heffeithiolrwydd a phetaent yn cael eu datblygu ymhellach. Nid oes nifer uchel ohonynt wedi’u gosod hyd yma.Yr Effaith Rheoleiddiol
Fire suppression should be targeted at rooms most likely to give rise to fires.  With the expected reduction in fire deaths in bedrooms and lounges as a result of the introduction of the new Reduced Incendiary Propensity cigarette, the highest risk area is likely to be the kitchen.  There are systems marketed to tackle kitchen fires which could, if standards are developed, provide a regulatory option but, again, we have limited evidence of their effectiveness as they have not been widely installed.Regulatory Impact
