Common Holiday Home Safety Questions
How can I prevent a kitchen fire at Christmas?
Stay near the stove while cooking. Also, keep towels and paper away from hot burners. Turn off the heat if you leave the kitchen.
Should I turn off Christmas lights at night?
Yes. Turn off lights before bed or when you leave home. Also, replace any light sets with damaged wires or plugs.
How do I keep a real Christmas tree safe?
Give the tree fresh water each day. Keep it away from heat and open flames. Remove it when it becomes dry.
Can pipes freeze during the Christmas holidays?
Yes. Very cold weather can freeze pipes, especially in poorly heated areas. As a result, pipes may burst and cause water damage.
What should I do after a holiday house fire?
Make sure everyone is safe. Do not go back inside until fire officials say it is safe. Then, contact your insurer and a restoration company.
