⚡ TIP TUESDAY ⚡️
🍂 Cooler Weather = More Electrical Demand!
As temperatures drop, space heaters, electric blankets, and other heating appliances start making their way out of storage.
Here’s your electrical safety tip for the week:
🔥 NEVER plug a space heater into a power strip or extension cord!
Space heaters draw a significant amount of electricity and can cause power strips or extension cords to overheat, creating a serious fire hazard.
✅ Plug space heaters directly into a wall outlet.
✅ Keep them at least 3 feet away from anything flammable.
✅ Turn them off when leaving the room or going to bed.
A little prevention goes a long way toward keeping your home and family safe! 🤍
