Home Safety in Southern Utah

With school now in session in southern Utah, it may be time for you to inspect, repair and/or upgrade safety items in your home. These safety items can include fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, along with other areas that can pose potential risk of harm to your family. Fire extinguishers should be regularly inspected by a certified technician to make sure that they are working properly and up to date. It is recommended that you change the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms every six months, checking them to ensure that they are in working order. Other things that should be inspected regularly for safety include air filters, crawl spaces, attics and electrical. If air filters become overly clogged, they can increase the amount of dust and debris that settles on heater coils leading to problems such as overrun motors and even fire. Crawl spaces and attics are areas that see high amounts of mold, which is unhealthy to let fester and grow and can be very uncomfortable for those family member suffering from allergies. Electrical outlets can give you ample warning of possible safety problems with hot spots, sparks or tripped circuits.
