Seasonal Fire Safety – Tips for Winter Heating and Holiday Decorations
Winter is peak season for certain fire hazards. Heating equipment, holiday lights, and seasonal decorations can all increase your risk if not handled properly.
Top Winter Fire Risks
- Space Heaters: Keep at least 3 feet from anything combustible.
- Candles: Never leave unattended; opt for battery-operated alternatives.
- Overloaded Circuits: Avoid plugging multiple high-wattage devices into one outlet.
Holiday-Specific Risks
- Live Trees: Keep watered to prevent dry, flammable needles.
- Lights: Inspect for frayed wires or damaged plugs before use.
- Decorations: Keep away from heat sources and exits.
Workplace Considerations
Holiday décor should never block fire exits or obstruct sprinkler coverage.
