Fireworks Safety
Not just illegal fireworks are dangerous – most fireworks injuries are caused by legal fireworks. Learn how to enjoy fireworks safely.

Give Space Heaters Space
Portable space heaters can quickly warm up a cold room, but they have also been the cause of many serious home fires. Keep portable heaters at least 3 feet away from combustible materials.

Practice Your Escape Plan
People can have less than a minute to escape a home fire safely. It is vital that everyone in the home knows exactly what to do if a fire starts and the smoke alarms sound.
