Christmas trees add so much joy to the holidays — but they can also be a fire hazard if not cared for properly. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), tree fires are rare but more likely to be serious when they happen, especially as trees dry out over time. 🔥 Top Safety Tips: ✨Choose a fresh tree with green needles that don’t fall off easily. 💧Keep the tree well-watered daily to prevent drying — dry trees ignite faster. 📏Place your tree at least 3 ft away from heat sources (fireplaces, heaters, vents). 💡Use lights with a recognized safety label and replace damaged strings. 🔌Always turn off tree lights when you leave home or go to bed. ♻️Dispose of your tree once it’s dry or after the holidays — don’t leave it inside or against your home. Stay safe and make your season merry and bright — responsibly! ✨ 📌 Source: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) nfpa.org

Before you buy anything with a lithium-ion battery, do your homework. Check the packaging and product for a mark from a nationally recognized testing lab—that stamp means it meets real safety standards. A lot of products sold online and in stores don’t, and that can seriously increase your risk of fire. Charge Into Fire Safety for Fire Prevention Week.

Anything with a lithium-ion battery— phones, laptops, e-bikes, power tools —can become a fire hazard if it’s not charged safely. Always use the charger that came with the device or one approved by the manufacturer. If the cord only works when you bend it just right, it’s time to replace it. Charge Into Fire Safety for Fire Prevention Week. For more information please visit fpw.org/ #firepreventionweek #sparky #firesafety #batterysafety @NFPA

Fire departments: Use this video to help the community understand how home fire sprinklers work. Only heat from a fire can activate a fire sprinkler. and the closest to the fire activates, not the entire system. Watch Now: tinyurl.com/2s478wyv #FireSafety #BuiltForLife
