Summer Grill Safety

8/13/2019 (Permalink)

Grills are a fun way to spend your summer time, but making sure you are safe is critical.

It may seem like the dog days are dwindling, but summer isn’t over yet.  That means pool parties, vacation, and grilling on the deck, but are you making sure you are using your grill in the safest way possible?  We have some great tips for keeping your home and family safe during grilling season.  

  1. Make sure to not leave your grill unattended when it is lit.   
  2. Clean your grill after every use.  Old grease and residue can be a quick way to start an unwanted fire.  
  3. 3 feet rule.  Keep your grill 3 feet away from your property or other objects that can be on your deck or patio (chairs, tables, etc.)   Make sure you look for overhead tree branches that can catch fire.   
  4. If you’re using a charcoal grill, dispose of coals in a metal can once they have cooled.   
  5. If using a gas grill, open the grill before you light it.  If the flame goes out, turn your grill off and wait 5 minutes before you relight.   
  6. Have baking soda or a class c fire extinguisher on hand in case of a fire that gets out of hand.   

No matter the fire, we are here for you.  Please refer to our Fire Damage Tips - Until Help Arrives Guide and follow these tips to protect yourself and your property.
