The holiday season is here and we would like to share some safety tips for this special time of year from www.ems1.com:
Indoor vs Outdoor lights – Check to make sure your lights labeled for indoor-use only are not used outdoors, including covered porches.
Candles – Never leave a candle unattended and maintain a one-foot buffer zone around them to avoid anything catching fire.
Cooking – Keep an eye on the stove and stand by your pan during these busy times in the kitchen this time of year.
Overloaded Outlets – An overloaded outlet is a fire hazard. Use a power strip for your holiday lights and decor that requires electricity. Check the watts as well to make sure you do not overload the outlet.
We wish you a wonderful and safe holiday season.
