October is Fire Prevention & Safety Month!

ROMEO, Mich. - Oct. 15, 2014 - PRLog -- We cannot stress enough how important it is to make sure you follow Fire Prevention tips!  See these tips below to help keep you and your family safe!

Fire Prevention Tips:

* Never plug multiple items into the same electrical outlet or circuit.  If an electrical
appliance smokes or smells unusual, unplug it immediately and have it serviced.
* Make sure light bulbs are the recommended wattage for all your light fixtures.
* Keep baking soda or salt near your stove to extinguish grease fires.  Don't use
water, which will spread the flame.
* Keep your stove's exhaust fan and range hood free of grease.  Keep the cooking
area free of combustibles.
* Never use an extension cord on a permanent basis and avoid running them under
rugs.
* Don't place hay, straw or other combustible materials beneath your home.
* Don't smoke in bed or when you're drowsy.
* Never leave home with clothes dryer running. Clean dryer vents frequently and
clean lint screens after each load to keep airway clear.
* Store flammable liquids like gasoline, kerosene, paint thinner, etc., in approved
containers outside your home, but not under your home.
* Make regular safety checks of your home's major systems or hire a professional
to inspect them.  Check for cleanliness, proper functioning and loose connections
for your:

* Heating and cooling system
* Fuel Lines
* Water heater
* Electrical
* Appliances
* Plumbing
