As the seasons change, so do the risks — and fire hazards can sneak up fast. Whether it’s space heaters in the fall, or overloaded outlets during the holidays, prevention is key.

Here’s how to stay safe:

✅ Check Your Smoke Detectors — Test monthly & change batteries every 6 months.
✅ Inspect Electrical Cords — Replace damaged wires and avoid overloading outlets.
✅ Clean Dryer Vents — Lint build-up is a common (and avoidable) fire starter.
✅ Use Space Heaters Safely — Keep them away from curtains, bedding, or furniture.
✅ Watch the Kitchen — Never leave the stove unattended, especially during holiday cooking.
✅ Keep a Fire Extinguisher Handy — And know how to use it!

Stay safe, stay prepared — and if the unexpected happens, we’re here to help.
