electrical winter tips

Now that it is getting to be winter we will all be turning on our heaters to keep the chill out.I would like to offer you a few tips that i hope will help you out.First if you are using a space heater keep blankets and sheets away.It would be a good idea to keep the heater at least four feet from where you are sleeping.Another thing to watch for is where the heater plugs into the wall .If the plug in the wall is old or worn out you may not be getting a good connection,which may cause the cord plug to become very hot.If you touch the cord and it is very hot , unplug the heater and get qualified electrician to check it out.Do not use gas or electric cook stoves for heating.Make sure if you are using space heaters ,they are a newer model with safety features installed.I hope this helps you out and as always if you have any questions give me a call 361 433-6039.Thanks for looking at my blog.
