For everyone else:
-- Call your utility to determine area repair schedules (PSE&G lists 800-350-7734).

Winter Fire Safety in the Home
The United State Fire Administration (USFA) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are working together to remind everyone that home fires are more prevalent in winter than in any other season. This is due in part to an increase in cooking and heating fires. Holiday decorations and winter storms that can interrupt electrical service and cause people to turn to alternative heating sources also contribute to the increased risk of fire in winter. Winter fires can be prevented.
For information visit the National Fire Protection Association website.
Learn more about maintaining a fire-safe home this winter season at the USFA website. |
