Fire Prevention/Public Education

 

REMEMBER to change the batteries in your smoke detectors every 6 months!!!!!

If your heating system is in a closet, keep the area around the unit clear, make sure the stack is in good condition. Have the unit serviced if in doubt... better to be safe, than sorry!!!

Check to see if your damper is open BEFORE you start to burn in your fireplace. NOTE: this goes for the folks using gas logs also! If you forget this step your smoke and/or Carbon Monoxide detectors may remind you!
