In the aftermath of three deadly residential fires in Westchester, we’ve had an increase in requests for Fire Prevention information. We’ll be sharing a series of posts containing practical guidance to help residents lower the risk of fire in their homes.

We’ll begin with a look at reducing the risk of electrical fires. About 50,000 electrical fires occur annually nationwide, most of them between midnight and 8 a.m.

Some Practical Tips:
 Always plug major appliances – such as refrigerators, air conditioners, ovens, washers and dryers – directly into a wall outlet. It is not safe to power major appliances and heat-generating appliances with power strips or extension cords.
 If any appliance has a cracked, damaged or loose cord, replace the appliance.
 Do not overload power strips. Use power strips that have internal overload protection.
 Replace worn or damaged extension cords right away.
 Do not run extension cords under rugs or anywhere they can become pinched or damaged.
 Only use lightbulbs with the wattage that is recommended for a particular lamp or lighting fixture.
 Do not overload electric wall outlets.
 Replace wall outlets if plugs do not fit snugly.
 Install tamper-resistant outlets in homes where small children are present.
Always charge electric vehicles or electric devices according to manufacturer’s instructions. Do not block exits with charging items such as scooters, bikes, or other items and do not tamper with the vehicles installed batteries.

Practice Exit Drills In The Home (E-D-I-T-H) with the entire family and have a meeting place outside and away from your home.

We join with the Westchester County community in extending our deepest condolences to the families of the four people who died in these fires.

After years of advocacy by FASNY, the NYS Assembly has passed landmark legislation increasing the volunteer firefighter and EMS tax credit from $200 to $800, the first increase since the program was established nearly 20 years ago.

This legislation, S.6233-A (Sen. Martinez) / A.6790-A (MOA McMahon), also removes outdated restrictions that prevented volunteers from receiving both the state income tax credit and locally authorized property tax exemptions, delivering long-overdue support for volunteer emergency responders across New York state.

“This is a transformational moment for volunteer emergency services in New York State,” said FASNY First Vice President, Donald J. Farrell. “Quadrupling the volunteer firefighter and EMS tax credit from $200 to $800 sends a powerful message that New York recognizes the critical role volunteers play in protecting communities every day.”

As volunteer departments statewide continue to face recruitment and retention challenges, the legislation represents one of the most significant investments in volunteer emergency services in decades.

The Senate is expected to advance the measure in the coming days.
