Stay safe this holiday season.

Wishing you a joyful and safe holiday season!

WETT and Canada’s Fire Safety officials remind you of the importance of inspecting and sweeping your chimney at least once a year. Routine maintenance plays a crucial role in preventing chimney fires.

As we approach the holiday season, here’s an important safety tip: Your home’s wood stove or fireplace is designed for burning firewood—not garbage. Avoid burning used gift wrap, ribbons, bows, boxes, or any other waste materials. These items can cause intense heat surges, which might ignite a chimney fire, especially if your system hasn’t been recently cleaned or inspected.

Stay cozy, stay safe, and enjoy the season responsibly!
