Please, please, please don’t put your space heater on carpet! One-third of home fires are caused by space heaters, and most happen during the colder months. We know your feet are freezing and you’re just trying to stay warm, but take a moment to follow these tips to help prevent a home fire this winter: • Keep the heater at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn, including people. • Place it on a solid, flat surface. • Plug it directly into a wall outlet. Never an extension cord. • Choose a heater with a thermostat and an automatic shut-off feature in case it tips over. #FirePrevention #SpaceHeater #EndHomefires
