It is not safe to use your oven to heat your home. If you have a gas oven, leaving it open to heat your home releases harmful carbon monoxide throughout your home. Given some time, carbon monoxide can be fatal.

Think safety at home. Don't plug household appliances such as microwaves, toaster ovens and air fryers into an extension cord or power strip. These appliances have higher power capacity and need to be plugged into a wall outlet directly.

The majority of all home heating fires occur in January and February. Keep yourself and your loved ones safe this winter.

If you’re using a space heater, fireplace or wood-burning stove to stay warm this winter, keep them at least 3 feet from anything flammable

Far too often, a first responder is hurt while helping clear a crash site. During Crash Responder Safety Week, please remember to always slow down and move over when approaching an accident #CRSW

The end of daylight saving time at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 6 is a perfect reminder to not only move clocks back an hour but also test each of your smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors.

If your children are going to Halloween parties at others’ homes, have them look for ways out of the home and plan how they would get out in an emergency.

[Ohio Fire Marshal @OhioFire]

Decorations are the first thing to ignite in many reported home fires around Halloween, More than one-third of these fires are started by a candle.

Fire burns dangerously fast. Families may have as little as two minutes to safely escape a home fire from the time the smoke alarm sounds. #FirePreventionWeek #firesafety
