SUMMER FIRE SAFETY
Every year, Americans look forward to summer time fun with picnics, family reunions and parties, and it also brings fires and injuries due to outdoor grilling.
U.S. Fire Administration National Fire Data Center estimates that yearly, outside grills cause more than 6,000 fires and over 5 fatalities with more than 200 injuries. Gas grills alone cause over 2,700 fires and 80 injuries. Most of the gas grill fires and explosions were caused by gas leaks, blocked tubes, and overfilled propane tanks.
The following is a list of useful safety measures for barbecue safety.
- Before using a gas grill, check the connection between the propane tank and fuel line and make sure the venturi tubes - where air and gas are mixed - are not blocked.
- Do not overfill the propane tank.
- Do not wear loose clothing while cooking at a barbecue.
- Be careful when using lighter fluid, and NEVER add lighter fluid to a lit barbecue.
- Keep all matches and lighters away from children,
- Supervise children around outdoor grills.
- Dispose of hot coals properly - douse with plenty of water. Make sure the fire is out.
- Never dispose hot coals in plastic, paper, or wooden containers
- NEVER grill in an enclosed area - carbon monoxide could be produced.
THINK SAFETY ALL YEAR ROUND. REMEMBER TO TEST SMOKE DETECTORS BATTERIES EVERY MONTH.
