Christmas Trees are a hazard that need proper care. Ensure you cut the base before setting to expose fresh wood. Check and water daily, these trees dry out extremely fast. Keep away from heat sources including fireplaces, heater vents, radiators and portable heaters. LED lights are safer than incandescent bulbs. Do not leave the tree lit while unattended. #christmas #treefire #christmasfire #safety #firefighter #firedepartment #firedepartment🔥🚒 #housefire #holiday #holidays #december #besafe

Please consider donating to any UFA or other fire station throughout Salt Lake County beginning now so we can all play a part in serving those around us and ensure no one suffers in the cold.
Items of particular need:
New or gently used winter coats and winter wear for youth
Adult winter wear and coats

Don’t forget to thaw your turkey and dry it thoroughly before frying them this week. Some thing to consider for your safety include frying on a level surface in a location that is away from your house. Wear protective gloves, goggles and an apron. It is best to keep kids and pets away while using these large fryers. Have an extinguisher nearby and don’t overcook the turkey 👨🏻🚒🧑🏽🚒👩🏿🚒 Thanks to Company 111 and Station 126 for the footage. #turkey #thanksgiving #cookingram #cookingsafety #fire #firedepartment #cookingfire #deepfried #turkeyday
