❓ Ask an Agent Friday
Before Fire Prevention Week ends, let's put everything into one quick walkthrough.
🔥 5-Minute Kitchen Fire Safety Check
Can you check all five?
1️⃣ Stove area
Are paper towels, dish towels, packaging and other things that can burn away from the stovetop?
2️⃣ Cooking habits
Do you stay in the kitchen during frying, boiling, grilling or broiling?
3️⃣ Pan handles
Are they turned toward the back of the stove?
4️⃣ Pan-fire plan
Do you have a lid or baking sheet nearby—and does everyone know never to put water on a grease fire?
5️⃣ After-a-loss plan
Do you know who to call and how you'd document damage if a kitchen fire affected your home?
If you found something that needs attention:
Fix it while you're already thinking about it.
Don't just save the checklist.
Walk into your kitchen and do it.
And since it's Ask an Agent Friday:
