WINTER FIRE SAFETY TIPS Check Electrical Wiring Faulty electrical wiring is a frequent contributor to commercial fires. Electrical wiring that is older than the building itself is a safety risk in older buildings.
Test Smoke Alarms Always make sure your smoke alarm batteries are updated and have enough power to get you through the winter. Smoke alarms should always be installed in high traffic areas like lobbies, offices, and kitchens. You should also replace any outdated fire alarms.
Be Careful Using Space Heaters Space heaters are one of the main wintertime causes of house fires, but when they are used at work, they can also be dangerous to commercial buildings.
Have Enough Fire Extinguishers In a business, you can never have too many fire extinguishers. It is advised to place several ABC extinguishers all around your area.
