π¨ Malvern Fire Company Safety Reminder: Generator Use π¨
As we respond to storms and power outages in our community, your safety remains our top priority. If you plan to use a generator, please follow these critical safety tips:
π Place generators at least 20 feet from your home β and always away from doors, windows, and HVAC systems to prevent deadly carbon monoxide (CO) from getting inside.
π Never run a generator indoors β this includes your home, garage, basement, or any enclosed area.
π Install carbon monoxide detectors on every level of your home, especially near sleeping areas, and make sure theyβre working properly.
Stay safe, Malvern β and if you ever suspect carbon monoxide exposure, evacuate immediately and call 911. |
