Smoke and Soot Damage from Cooking Fire in China Lake Home?
8/22/2023 (Permalink)
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), cooking fires are one of the leading causes of home fires in the United States. Our local Hesperia/Apple Valley and Barstow/Twentynine Palms, Victorville teams respond to fire damage emergencies throughout the year in China Lake, and offer these tips from the NFPA for preventing cooking fires:
- Be on alert! If you are sleepy or have consumed alcohol don’t use the stove or stovetop.
- Stay in the kitchen while you are frying, boiling, grilling, or broiling food. If you leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, turn off the stove.
- If you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you are cooking
- Keep anything that can catch fire (oven mitts, wooden utensils, food packaging, towels, or curtains) away from your stovetop
