🔥 Fire Safety Reminder: Ashes, Woodstoves & Carbon Monoxide 🔥

A common but dangerous practice we still see is storing a pail of ashes beside a woodstove.

Hot embers can remain hidden in ashes for days, even when they appear cold. Storing ash pails indoors or beside a woodstove can lead to unintended fires and increase the risk of carbon monoxide (CO) exposure if smouldering ashes release gases into the home.

Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless, and deadly — and exposure can happen without any warning signs.

✔ Always place ashes in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid
✔ Store the container outside, away from buildings and combustible materials
✔ Ensure working smoke & CO alarms are installed on every level of your home
❌ Never store ash pails indoors or near a woodstove

A few simple precautions can prevent fires and save lives. Heat safely this winter. 🚒🔥
