Winter Fact: Most deadly home heating fires start because something was placed too close to a heat source.
Safety Tip: Keep all space heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn: furniture, blankets, curtains, Christmas trees, pillows, gifts… everything.
Try the broom test:• Lay a broom on the floor between the heater and the nearest object.
• If the broom fits, you’re in the safe zone.
No exceptions. No “just for a minute.”
A single misplaced blanket or decoration can ignite in seconds.
Stay warm. Stay safe. Give your heater plenty of space.
