Prevention

An ounce of prevention blah blah…

We aren’t big on clichés but since most residential fires start in the kitchen, we’ve dug up some safety tips:

• Don’t leave the kitchen when food is boiling or frying
• Check the oven regularly regardless of the cooking method
• If you don’t remember whether you have replaced the batteries in the smoke detectors, change them now
• If you are cooking outdoors, keep the grill/ smoker/ deep fryer away from wood, brush, towels, or other flammable materials
• Vegan and vegetarian dinners don’t make homes immune from fires
• Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the cooking equipment
• Follow the instructions – really – no one will accuse you of being a wimp for following instructions

By the way, we should congratulate ourselves in the United States. Despite our dreadful fire-safety record, we do keep grills and other outdoor cooking equipment far enough away from the house for safety. If we could stop squirting lighter fluid on live coals, it would be even better.

We are here whenever you need us. Our goal is to make the damage “Like it never even happened.”

Trivia

Velociraptors probably could not have figured how to turn doorknobs (as they did in those movies), which was a cool trick for an animal without thumbs.
