Each year we see our responses to structure fire calls increase when home heating is supplemented with the use of fireplaces or woodstoves. However you plan to heat your home this year, please plan for safety with pre-season cleaning and inspection from a certified technician so you have a safe and warm winter season. Removing creosote buildup from last season and finding or fixing flaws or weaknesses in your heat system can prevent deadly chimney fires. Stay safe!

Some folks get confused when emergency vehicles approach them from behind or ahead. Regardless of your direction of travel, slow down and pull to the right to allow an emergency vehicle to pass you when their lights are activated. It helps us help others quickly AND it is the law. Thanks.
