If the winter storm has impacted you, take a few minutes to make sure you’re heating your home safely.
If you’re using fuel-burning appliances or equipment—such as furnaces, space heaters, or generators make sure they’re working properly and vented correctly.
✔️ Test carbon monoxide alarms so they’re ready to give early warnings
✔️ Clear snow from dryer, furnace, stove, and fireplace vents
✔️ Use portable generators outdoors only, away from doors, windows, and vents
