Heating is 2nd highest cause of fire

As temperatures drop outdoors, be mindful of the risks associated with home heating which is second only to cooking when it comes to causes of home fires.

An article by James Shannon, President of the National Fire Protection Association, discusses the concerns they have as we enter the winter season. Space heaters, fireplaces and wood stoves are all sources of fires resulting in deaths and a high dollar amount of property loss.

Please take the time to read your owners manuals to help prevent these losses.
