January Fire Safety Information

January is historically a higher-risk month for residential fires due to colder weather and increased use of heating sources. LRFD encourages all residents to take the following precautions to reduce fire risk:

• Maintain a minimum three-foot clearance between space heaters and combustible materials.
• Never leave fireplaces, wood stoves, or portable heaters unattended.
• Ensure chimneys and stove pipes are inspected and cleaned as needed.
• Test smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors regularly and replace batteries as necessary.
• Follow all local and state burn regulations and avoid illegal burning.

Thank you for your continued support of LRFD and for helping keep our community safe throughout the winter season.
