99 News for 1/24/13

THE BITTER COLD OF RECENT DAYS MERITS A RE-FRESHER COURSE ON THE PROPER USE OF SPACE HEATERS.
ST.LAWRENCE COUNTY DEPUTY FIRE COORDINATOR FOR FIRE SAFETY EDUCATION JOE LACKS OF HAILESBORO SAYS SPACE HEATERS—UNITS TO KEEP SECTIONS OF THE HOME WARM AS A SUPPLEMENT TO THE REGULAR HEATING SYSTEM, OR AN EMERGENCY SOURCE OF HEAT ARE SOME OF THE MOST COMMON CAUSES OF FIRES IN THE WINTER. LACKS SAYS THE PLACEMENT OF A SPACE HEATER IN A ROOM IS AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION--RADIANT HEAT CAN IGNITE CLOTHES, BEDDING OR FURNITURE AT A CONSIDERABLE DISTANCE.
LACKS SAYS SPACE HEATERS POSE DANGERS IF USED IMPROPERLY, WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE ELECTRIC OR PETROLEUM-POWERED. ELECTRIC HEATERS CAN STRESS THE CIRCUITRY OF THE HOME AND CAUSE A FIRE. KEROSENE HEATERS SHOULD BE FILLED WHEN THEY'RE EXTINGUISHED, COOLED, AND OUTDOORS. GASOLINE, DESIGNED TO EXPLODE, SHOULD NEVER BE USED IN A KEROSENE HEATER.

LACKS SAYS HAVING PROPERLY-WORKING SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS IN THE HOME IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT, BUT MORE IMPORTANT IF SPACE HEATERS ARE USED.
