Protection From Heating Equipment Fires
According to the National Fire Protection Association, nearly half (48%) of home heating equipment fires are reported during the months of December, January & February.
While more than two of five (44%) of home heating fires involve space heaters, space heaters are involved in 86% of home heating fire deaths.
If you are using a space heater to warm up, please be sure to plug all space heaters directly into a wall outlet and always turn it off when leaving the room or going to bed.
