The winter season can be busy and full of family and festivities. Decorating for the holidays, shopping, and hours of cooking and baking – it’s easy to get lost in the festivities and forget to keep fire safety in mind.
You can play an active part in helping to ensure your home stays safe with the change of season. Here are three to-do list items that our licensed Denver electricians at Bell Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical recommend following to help protect your home and family.
Giant snowflakes, inflatable reindeer, and flickering holiday lights – decorating your home for the upcoming holiday season can be such fun! But with it comes the potential for a variety of fire hazards.
Here’s how to decorate safely:
Comfort food and baking are at the heart of the season. With holidays approaching, your kitchen may become busy, and you may become distracted – unattended cooking is the leading cause of kitchen fires.
Protecting the heart of your home involves just a bit of mindfulness:
With all the fun of changing seasons comes the chores, which may include cleaning up your yard of leaf piles, sticks, and other debris.
Fall cleanup not only keeps your yard looking beautiful, but it’s also a good time to inspect and protect the outside of your home:
If at any point you detect an electrical hazard, or if something doesn’t seem right, play it safe! Bell’s licensed electricians can help you verify the hazard and figure out the next steps to get it fixed.
Stay safe, and enjoy the holiday season!
