Going on Vacation?
Here are some tips to keep your home safe from electrical fires and other hazards before you leave town this summer:

- Ensure that your smoke alarms are working on every level of your home
- Check to make sure that your carbon monoxide alarm is functioning to protect your home from any gas appliances
