Tips to Prevent a Sleeping Area Fire
- Even small candles can cause a major fire. Place all candles in sturdy holders that won’t burn or allow wax to drip onto tables, floors or rugs. Keep them away from flammable materials such as curtains, books or posters and fully extinguish all candles when you leave the room or go to sleep. Do not allow children or teens to have candles in their bedrooms, and keep an eye on pets who may brush against a candle.
- Ensure all extension cords and electrical devices are in good condition. Replace frayed or damaged cords. Do NOT run electrical cords under carpets or heavy furniture where they may become frayed or damaged.
- Stay warm safely. If you use a space heater to keep warm in winter, make sure they are at least one meter away from anything that can burn. Turn all space heaters off every time you leave the room or go to bed. Remove space heaters from children’s rooms completely when the kids go to bed.
- Smoking and sleeping don’t mix. Even if you feel wide awake, avoid smoking in or around your bed. If you feel yourself getting drowsy, extinguish smoking materials immediately.
