🥶🥶🥶Fire Safety Reminder 🥶 🔥🏠
We know when it’s COLD, fireplaces and chimneys get more use—and that’s when preventable fires often happen.
A few key reminders:
• Use only an appropriate amount of wood and never overfill your fireplace
• Never use gasoline or kerosene to start a fire
• Dispose of ashes only after they are completely cool
• Always place ashes in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid
• Keep ash containers at least 10 feet away from structures
• Never use plastic bags, cardboard boxes, or compost piles for ash disposal
Stay safe and help protect your family, neighbors, and community.
