October is Fire Prevent Month and this year’s theme is “Cooking safety starts with you!” So here are a few tips to keep you, your loved ones, and your home and business safe…
- Watch what you heat. Stay in the kitchen until you’re done cooking and all heating equipment is off.
- Never cook if you’re tired, have had alcohol or are on meds that make you drowsy.
- Keep anything that can catch fire at least three feet away from the stovetop.
- If you have a small grease fire on the stovetop, smother flames by sliding a lid over the pan. Turn off the burner and allow it to cool completely.
- Never carry a burning skillet outside. You could severely burn yourself or cause the fire to spread.
- For an over fire, turn off the heat and keep the door closed.
- When in doubt, get out! Close doors behind you to help contain smoke and fire. Call 911 from outside.
