  1. 6 Fireplace Safety Tips

  2. Introduction 01 Your fireplace provides you and your family with much-needed warmth and is probably the best place to gather around during these uncertain weather swings. However, before making your family plans, make sure that the place is well-maintained and up to the mark to function properly.

  3. Chimney Inspection And Cleaning NRC (national research council Canada) has guided users to get their chimneys inspected and cleaned at least once a year. It has also mentioned the importance of cleaning chimneys in several pieces of research.

  4. Smoke Detector Check Make sure to check your smoke detector and ensure that it is working properly. It is better to keep a backup for the batteries that are suitable for your smoke detector. Hearing a loud chirp sound from your smoke detectors indicates that it needs new batteries.

  5. Carbon Dioxide Detector Check High concentrations of carbon dioxide in the air can be fatal. Therefore, it is important to take precautions to avoid and prevent carbon dioxide poisoning. A CO2 detector can alert you when levels have gone above the normal range.

  6. Don’t Place Wrapped Packages Near A Fire It is advisable to keep all combustible materials at least three feet away from your lightened fireplace and other fire sources like candles, stoves, and portable heaters.

  7. Don’t Burn Wrapping Paper The chemicals in these materials produce high temperatures when burned which can trigger a chimney fire above your fireplace. So, it is advisable to never burn wrapping paper in your fireplace.
