Safety Tip
If you have a fire place, please make sure to dispose of hot ashes and coals appropriately. Ashes and coals can remain hot longer than one may think.
To properly dispose of ashes or coals please remember these safety tips:
• If possible, allow ashes and coals to cool in the area where you had the fire for several days. These devices are designed to contain their heat safely.
• When it is time to dispose of the ashes, transfer them to a metal container and wet them down.
• Keep the metal container outside your home and away from any combustibles until the refuse is hauled away.
• Do not place any other combustibles in the metal container.
