IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU: YOUR HOUSE BECOMES A SIGNAL FIRE FOR SANTA
Santa is a very wise fellow. Not only does he know who has been naughty and nice, but also knows exactly where you live. That’s why he cautions everyone to be very careful during the holidays because the smallest heat, fire or electrical accident could turn your home into a signal fire…and Santa doesn’t need the help to find you. Plus, he’s not landing on a blazing roof.
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA), an estimated 240 home fires involving Christmas trees and another 150 home fires involving holiday lights and other decorative lighting occur each year. These fires are responsible for 21 deaths and $25.2 million in direct property damage.
Make sure to follow the home holiday safety checklist below prior to the holidays, and continue to be vigilant while your family and friends enjoy the holidays together.
