The Dangers of Space Heaters in Your Southeast El Paso Home

2/5/2021 (Permalink)

Many homes in the area do not come with heat. We often turn to space heaters to keep ourselves warm during the winter months. Whether you are warming a small bedroom or an entire house, space heaters can pose a significant danger.

Always keep your space heater away from anything flammable such as perfumes, hair sprays, curtains, laundry, baskets, blankets or clutter. Space heaters can get extremely hot and if a material is flammable enough it can catch fire.

If your space heater does not come with an automatic off option be sure to turn off the heater when you leave the room and especially when you leave the house.  

If your house has a fire from a space heater or something else, SERVPRO of Southeast El Paso is here and ready to help.  Please call (915) 234-2614 to receive an immediate response from our team.
