Winter Safety Tips for your Home
- Check your carbon monoxide and smoke detectors: Be sure to replace the batteries in your detectors so they are able to properly function and keep you safe.
- Replace your air filters and have your vents cleaned: Air filters should be checked monthly and replaced if necessary. Cleaning your vents and changing your air filters can allow you and your family to breathe healthier and cleaner air inside your home.
- Never leave space heaters unattended: unplug space heaters when you leave a room or go to bed. Do not use an extension cord or power strip to power your heater, as they can overheat and cause a fire.
- Have a plan for emergencies: In the event of a fire, be sure to have an evacuation plan in place. Know the number of your local fire department or simply dial 911 to alert them of the situation and send help right away.
