Wildfire Preparation
From creating defensible space around your home to understanding evacuation routes and maintaining emergency supplies, our guidelines will help you stay safe and protect your assets. Being proactive and informed can make a significant difference in minimizing risks and maximizing safety during this critical time.
Home Air Conditioner and Fan Safety
With the arrival of warmer temperatures, most homeowners depend on air conditioners to keep cool in the summer months. Despite the comfort provided by air conditioners during sweltering weather, it’s important to know that ACs and even fans can cause fires if not properly maintained.
Swimming Pool Safety Tips
The summer months are perfect to spend with family and friends around a backyard swimming pool. But despite the fun they bring, pools do pose their own risks. 71% of reported fatal drowning incidents occurred at residential locations and 56% of fatal drowning incidents involving children under 5 were due to gaps in adult supervision. Check out this list of helpful tips to prevent pool incidents this summer.
Boat Safety: On The Water
Operating a boat can be fun and exciting, but it has risks. Here are a few suggestions that will help keep you safe while you’re out enjoying your boat or personal watercraft.
Summer Safety For Teen Drivers
Learning to drive can be stressful for teens and parents. Teenagers have the highest crash rate of all drivers on the road. Parents can ease their anxiety and protect their kids by getting actively involved in the learning process.
