Our local Mission Valley East team wants everyone in Allied Gardens to be safe from fire this winter. Winter brings cozy fires and holiday gatherings but also raises the risk of home fires. Staying vigilant about fire safety can help you enjoy the season safely.

One key area of focus is heating equipment, which is a leading cause of winter fires. Keep space heaters at least three feet away from flammable items such as curtains, furniture, and bedding, and never leave them unattended. It is also wise to inspect and maintain your furnace or fireplace before the cold sets in.

Another crucial fire safety measure is candle awareness. Candles add warmth to winter nights, but they should be used carefully. Place them on stable, heat-resistant surfaces, away from curtains and other flammables, and always extinguish them before leaving the room.

Finally, check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Replace batteries and ensure alarms are working correctly to provide early warnings in case of fire or smoke. Taking these simple precautions can reduce fire risks and keep your family safe throughout the winter months. This season, make fire safety a priority for peace of mind and a safer home.
