Christmas is coming!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, Christmas – family- festivities and fun will fill this month. It’s a special time of the year; our homes are decorated to celebrate the holiday season with lights and candles.  During the holidays there is a greater risk of a fire in your home. Make sure safety is a part of your holiday plans.

• Check all light cords to ensure that they aren’t frayed or broken. Connect only three strands per extension cord.
• When installing outdoor lights make sure they are for outdoor use.
• Trees – if you are using a live tree make sure it’s fresh and keep it watered throughout the season, if you are using an artificial tree make sure the label reads fire- resistant. Always keep your tree away from fireplaces, radiators and all other heat sources.
• Test your smoke detectors on each level of your home.

Enjoy this holiday season and know SERVPRO of Greenwood, Abbeville, & McCormick Counties will be here for you!
