Your local fire department
can give your home a tho-
rough courtesy safety in-
spection, the council says.
Here are some of the things
to look for.
Are appliances installed
properly and maintained ac-
cording to the manufactur-
er’s recommendations? Are
all fuel-burning units vented
to the outside with flue pipes
fitted and in good repair?
A flickering yellow flame
indicates an appliance burn-
er out of adjustment. A blue
flame is best.
Also, don’t overtax an
appliance to do more than it
was designed to do. For
instance, avoid using gas
ovens for heating.
Charcoal and hibachi grills

Sealing up your home to
keep out Texas’ winter
winds is a smart idea, but be
sure an unwanted deadly
guest has not been trapped
inside with your family,
warns the Safety Council of
Fort Worth and Tarrant
County.
Carbon monoxide (CO), an
invisible, odorless, tasteless,
poisonous gas, can creap
from the furnace, water
heater, cooking range, space
heater, fireplace, charcoal or
hibachi grill, and, in the
garage, from the engine of
your car.
The Safety Council sug-
gests taking steps to insulate
your family against the CO
byproduct of burning fuel.
f of CO that they should be
used only outdoors.
Keep fireplace dampers
: open until the fire and
embers are completely ex-
tinguished.
If you have an attached
garage, never leave the car
inside while the engine is
running.
Always keep a fresh air
source open when using a
gas-burning space heater.
