Fire safety tips and tricks for keeping your family safe during the holidays in Morristown, NJ.
Before you prep your kitchen for a holiday cooking extravaganza, consider learning all about holiday fire safety to avoid a disaster. December 25th is the second-worst day of the year for fire damage. The primary cause? Cooking.

Restoration 1 of Morris County would like to help homeowners like you alleviate any fire damage risks around the holidays. Our fire safety tips and tricks should help.

How Do Home Cooking Fires Get Started?

While cooking is the number one cause of home fires during the holidays, it’s frying that poses the biggest problem. According to the NFPA, one-third of all home cooking fires are caused by unattended equipment. So, if you’re deep-frying a turkey in the backyard, remember to keep it at least ten feet from your home.

Easy Ways to Prevent Holiday Home Cooking Fires?

  • Clean Everything — It’s easy to ignore a dirty stovetop because we tell ourselves that it doesn’t look too bad. It is, though. To avoid a grease fire caused by build-up, clean your stove surface regularly.
  • Child-Proof — If you can, child-proof your kitchen during the holidays to avoid excited children from getting underfoot.
  • Pan Lids — In the event of a grease fire, ensure you have a pan lid close by to smother the flames before they worsen
