SAFETY TIPS FOR USING ALTERNATIVE HEAT SOURCES With the cost of heating a house on the rise, many people are looking at alternative sources for heat this winter. Be sure that any alternative heating source that you are considering is properly installed and follows all manufacturers’ safety procedures before operating the appliance. Whether you use your fireplace regularly each year or not, you should have it cleaned and inspected. You should avoid using coal, charcoal, trash or paper wrappings in your fireplace. These items burn extremely hot and can cause chimney fires. Here are just a few safety tips to keep in mind this heating season. SIDEWALK ICE & SNOW MAINTENANCE With cold weather upon us, we would like to remind all residents that by City ordinance: “Sidewalks must be clear of ice and snow at all times. Snow and/or ice should be removed within the first twelve (12) hours after daylight, following or during a fall of snow.” (Section 521.06) � Get Get a a good good grip. grip. Wear gloves thick enough to protect the skin from blisters. Space your hands apart on the handle to increase your leverage and make it easier to lift the snow. Employee Recognition The City of Waterville wishes to recognize the following employees for their continued commitment to our community: � Your gas cooking stove and oven should not be used as a heating source. This is due to the danger of Carbon Monoxide that could build up in your home. Carbon Monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas that can be fatal when breathed. � Kerosene heaters should be placed on level, hard and non-flammable surfaces. Store kerosene fuel in containers intended and marked as such. Never use gasoline in a kerosene heater. Even small amounts of gasoline can cause a fire when accidentally mixed with kerosene. Always refuel the heater outside and only after it has cooled. Certain ice control techniques can be very harmful to concrete. Rock salt and fertilizers (commonly referred to as de-icers that contain calcium) will deteriorate sidewalks. These substances will pit the concrete surface. The abrasive effect combined with the chemical reaction will have an extremely corrosive impact. 7 � Generator usage also increases during the winter months. Remember - never use a generator in your home or attached garage. It should be operated in a wellventilated area and protected from the elements. It should only be refueled outside and after it has cooled down. � Every home should have working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors; they can save your life.
