Whether you use a wood-burning stove or a fireplace, always put the fire out before going to bed or leaving your home, even if it's just for a few minutes. Learn more about home heating safety here: bit.ly/3YOUq71

In an emergency, every second counts. Too much clutter can block your exits and slow you down when you need to escape quickly. Keep pathways clear, especially around doors and windows, so you and your family can get out safely if a fire breaks out.

Smoke alarms save lives! As temperatures drop, its important to keep in mind that many home heating sources can increase the risk of fires. Properly working smoke alarms can give you and your family extra time to escape your home in the event of a fire. bit.ly/4gN1uJf

It's a fact: if your smoke alarm was manufactured before November 1, 2014, it needs to be replaced! Check the back of your alarm for the manufacture date. Don't forget to do a test & check the batteries as we end #DaylightSavingTime this weekend! 🕰🔄

Candles are a common cause of home fires around Halloween. If you chose to use real candles in your Jack-o'-Lanterns, be sure to put them in sturdy, non-flammable holders, and keep them away from decorations, walkways and trick-or-treaters. 🕯️🎃 com.ohio.gov/education-and-t…

Smoke alarms need to be replaced every 10 years, but a new survey from the @USCPSC found that only half (51%) of U.S. households were accurate about the age of their alarms. Make sure your smoke alarms are working! Learn more at fpw.org #firepreventionweek

Never smoke in bed. Mattresses and bedding can catch on fire easily. Do not smoke in bed because you might fall asleep with a lit cigarette. #SmokingFireSafety #FirePrevention #FireSafetyTips
