The kitchen is the Number One site for home fires.  Here are some kitchen safety pointers to keep in mind as you hunt for kitchen hazards!
  • Be sure the oven and stove are clean - food and grease ignite very easily.
  • Never leave cooking unattended, and keep a safe distance between your stove and objects that may catch on fire.
  • Avoid loose, flowing clothing which could accidentally make contact with a flame or hot surface.
  • This is a good time to check whether everyone in your home knows what to do in the event of a clothing fire. Know  AND  practice Stop, Drop and Roll.
Hot Stove
Hot Iron
  • Remember to turn pot handles in when cooking and to cool a burn with cool water.
  • Check all appliances for frayed cords and overheating.
  • Never leave anything that is hot unattended. In fact, it's best to unplug countertop appliances when not in use.
