Keep fire safe with portable heaters: Use your heater on a flat surface, keep the heater away from anything flammable, buy new from trustworthy sellers, register your heater to keep up to date with product recalls and safety info. NEVER cover or use your heater to dry clothing.

Christmas is just a few days away and your trees are up! but remember... heat and lack of water will dry out the tree very quickly, keep the tree stand filled with water which will help your tree from drying out and becoming more flammable. Keep your tree away from heat sources.

Regular testing of smoke alarms can save lives, have you tested yours today? #testittuesday
