🔥🏠 FIREPLACE SAFETY REMINDER 🏠🔥
As the temperatures drop and fireplace season gets underway, we want to remind everyone to take the proper precautions to keep your home and family safe!
A warm, cozy fire is a great way to beat the cold, but fireplace safety starts before you light the first fire!
Here are a few important safety tips:
🧹 Inspect Your Chimney: Have your chimney inspected and cleaned regularly by a qualified professional to prevent creosote buildup.
🪵 Burn the Right Fuel: Only burn seasoned, dry wood in your wood-burning fireplace. Never burn trash, cardboard, or treated wood.
🛡️ Use a Fireplace Screen: Help prevent sparks and embers from escaping into your living space.
📏 Keep Your Distance: Keep furniture, rugs, decorations, and other combustible materials at least 3 feet away from the fireplace.
🚫 Never Leave a Fire Unattended: Make sure the fire is completely extinguished before going to bed or leaving your home.
🪣 Dispose of Ashes Safely: Place ashes in a covered metal container and store it outside, away from your home and anything combustible. Ashes can retain heat for days!
🚨 Check Your Alarms: Test your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms to make sure they are working properly.
Keep these tips, along with those in the graphic, in mind as the temperatures drop and you start using your fireplace more frequently!

🔥🚒 Fire Prevention Week is in full swing! 🚒🔥
We kicked off the week with our friends at Highland Elementary, and now we’re on to Rossmoyne Elementary!
Throughout the week, students are learning important fire safety lessons, including:
🔥 The importance of working smoke detectors
🏡 Choosing a safe family meeting place
🧑🚒 Understanding the different pieces of a firefighter’s gear — and why we wear them
🚒 Getting an up-close look at our fire trucks and equipment
💨 Practicing how to safely crawl low below the smoke with the help of our smoke trailer
One of our favorite parts of Fire Prevention Week is getting to spend time with the kids, hear their questions, and help them feel comfortable around firefighters and our gear.
A huge thank you to our wonderful career and volunteer members who take the time to make these visits possible. We love getting out into our community, sharing what we know, and helping teach the next generation how to stay safe!
