๐ŸŒŠ Never drive through standing water. It can hide deep potholes or cause you to hydroplane.

๐Ÿ”ฅ As the temperatures drop, many of you are firing up space heaters and fireplaces to stay cozy, but heating equipment is one of the leading causes of home fires during the winter?

Keep your home safe with these heating tips:
๐Ÿ“ Keep anything that can burn (curtains, bedding, furniture) at least 3 feet away from any heating equipment
๐Ÿ”Œ Always plug portable heaters directly into a wall outlet and never use an extension cord or power strip
๐Ÿ˜ด Turn off space heaters when you leave the room or go to sleep
๐Ÿงน Have your furnace and chimney inspected and cleaned annually by a professional.

Stay warm and safe this winter, !

โš ๏ธ You canโ€™t see it or smell it, but you can stop it.

Carbon Monoxide (CO) is known as the "silent killer," especially during cooler months when heaters and fireplaces are used more frequently. Protect your household with these critical tips:

๐Ÿ”‹ Test your alarms: Ensure CO detectors are working on every level of your home and near sleeping areas
๐Ÿ”ฅ Check your vents: Make sure gas appliances, fireplaces and furnaces are properly vented
๐Ÿš— Never idle indoors: Never run a car or generator inside a garage, even if the door is open

If your alarm sounds, get outside immediately and call 9-1-1. Safety first, ! ๐Ÿ
