Metamora, MI – What Could Spark a Fire in Your Home Tonight?
Many Metamora homes rely on wood stoves or space heaters—especially during Michigan winters. But these comforts can become hazards when safety takes a backseat. The IICRC reminds us that most fires are preventable with simple, routine precautions.
🔥 Fire Hazards You Might Overlook:
Chimney Creosote Buildup:
Burning wood leaves flammable residue inside chimneys. If not cleaned regularly, it can ignite and start a chimney fire.
Overheating Extension Cords:
Running space heaters on low-quality or overloaded extension cords is a major cause of winter fires.
Stovetop Clutter:
Potholders, wooden spoons, and even paper towels left near burners have caused thousands of household fires.
🔌 Safety starts with inspection.
Fire risk hides in habits and routines. Take 5 minutes to scan your space—your future self will thank you.
