We hope you have a nice holidays and gathered some useful tips for you!
Merry Christmas!

1. Inspect electrical decorations for damage before usage. 
2. Do not overload your electrical outlets. 
3. Never connect more than three strings of incandescent lights. 
More than three strands may not only blow a fuse, but can also cause a fire. 
4. Keep trees fresh by watering daily.
Dry trees are a serious fire hazard.
5. Use battery-operated candles. 
Candles start almost half of home decoration fires (NFPA).
6. Keep combustibles at least three feet from heat sources. 
A heat source that was too close to the decoration was a factor in half of the home fires that began with decorations (NFPA).
7. Protect cords from damage. 
To avoid shock or fire hazards, cords should never be pinched by furniture, forced into small spaces such as doors and windows, placed under rugs, located near heat sources, or attached by nails or staples. 
8. Check decorations for the certification label.
Decorations not bearing a label from an independent testing laboratory such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL), Canadian Standards Association (CSA), or Intertek (ETL) have not been tested for safety and could be hazardous. 
9. Stay in the kitchen when something is cooking.  
10. Turn off, unplug, and extinguish all decorations when going to sleep or leaving the house.
