Fire Safety for Barbecue Grills
Please keep the following in mind when you fire up the
grill:
- Charcoal grills may never
be used indoors.
- Grills should be kept at least
15 feet from any structure or any combustible
materials.
- Grills are never to be used on
a building patio, porch or roof, particularly if
there is combustible structure above.
- When using a charcoal grill,
flammable charcoal lighter fluid will be used
prior to lighting. Never add lighter
fluid after the coals are lit. If more charcoal is
needed, add pre-soaked coals.
- Used charcoal should be left
in the grill until cold to the touch or thoroughly
soaked in water before disposal.
- Never leave a cooking or lit
grill unattended.
- When using a barbecue grill,
do not wear loose fitting clothing that could catch
on fire.
- All gas lines, valves and
connections on gas grills will be periodically
inspected to detect leakage. If a leak is detected,
the grill will not be used until the gas leak is
repaired.
