Barbecue Safety Reminders

We all love the taste of BBQ in the summer time and look forward to spending time with family & friends.  Please remember when using barbecue grills on decks or patios, be sure to leave sufficient space from siding and eaves.  This will prevent your siding from catching fire. 

With gas grills, be sure that the hose connection is tight and check hoses carefully for leaks. Applying soapy water to the hoses will easily and safely reveal any leaks.  Be sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions and have the grill repaired by a professional, if necessary.
