Fourth of July Fire Safety Tips
7/3/2019 (Permalink)
As you celebrate our nation's birthday, keep the following tips in mind to avoid any fire-related problems.
- Never light fireworks indoors or near dry grass.
- Keep a bucket of water and/or a fire extinguisher nearby.
- Know how to operate a fire extinguisher properly.
- Do not wear loose clothing while cooking on a barbecue.
- Use caution when using lighter fluid on a barbecue. Do not add fluid to an already lit fire, as the flame can flashback into the container and explode.
- Never grill in an enclosed area, as carbon monoxide could be produced.
Enjoy the holiday safely!
