Keep These Safety Tips In Mind
We may be entering the dog days of summer, but grilling season is still in full swing. Nationwide, grill fires on residential properties result in an estimated average of 10 deaths, 100 injuries, and $37 million in property loss each year.
- Only use your grill outdoors.
- Keep grills away from the home, deck rails, and NOT under eaves or overhanging branches.
|
- A three foot zone around your grill is required to keep kids, pets, and homes safe.
- Charcoal grilling on a wooden deck is not recommended. If it cannot be avoided, the use of a pan under the grill to catch falling charcoal embers is a good idea.
- If you have a gas grill, open the grill before lighting.
- Grills should be cleaned after each use to remove grease that can start a fire.
- Place coals in a metal can once they have cooled.
- Never leave your grill unattended.
