Holiday Survival Guide Tips #14-18
We got a little behind in our transition to posting tips on blogger from Facebook! Here are your Holiday Survival Guide Tips #14-18!
#14 - Avoid fire, injury and wax on your mantle. Consider using battery operated candles instead of traditional flame candles!
#15 - Test your smoke and CO2 detectors monthly and be sure your home is equipped with the adequate number of alarms! Connect all alarms together electrically and install inside each bedroom, hallway and living area!
#16 - Use only weatherproof electrical devices for outside decorations. Protect outdoor electrical
devices from moisture!#17 - Have your heating system inspected annually by a licensed, qualified professional!
#18 - Never allow children to play with electrical decorations or cords! It may seem like common sense, but hey, we all need little reminders every now and then!
More to come ...
