n When lighting a gas fireplace, strike your match first, then turn on the gas.
n Burn only dry, seasoned wood, and dispose of the cooled ashes in a closed metal container outside and away from your home.
n Never leave a fire burning unattended in the fireplace.
Portable Space Heaters
n When buying a space heater, look for a control feature that automatically shuts off the power if the heater falls over.
n Never leave a heater on when you are not in the room or when you go to sleep, and do not leave children or pets unattended around any heating source. Unplug the heater when you are not using it.
n Don’t use an extension cord with an electric portable heater. The current to the heater could melt the cord and cause a fire.
n Don’t plug more than one heating device into an outlet.
n Never use electric heaters near water, as in a bathroom or near a water heater.
Kerosene Heaters
n Make sure the room has proper ventilation.
n Fill your heater with only crystal clear, K-1 kerosene. Do not use any fluid that is not recommended for your heater. Refuel outside, and only after the heater has cooled down.
n Check the wick every couple of weeks during the heating season. If the wick is dirty, clean it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
n Because a kerosene heater has a constant open flame, it should not be used in a room where there are flammable solvents, aerosol sprays, gasoline or any type of oil.
