As winter approaches, many people rely on room heaters for warmth, but safety should be a top priority.

As the winter season sets in, the use of heaters increases. However, improper use of heaters can pose serious risks, including the potential for short circuits, overheating, and even explosions. It is crucial to follow safety guidelines when operating heaters to ensure both personal and property safety.

2. Avoid Overusing The Heater: Running a heater for extended periods can cause it to overheat and possibly lead to an explosion. Turn off the heater after using it for a while to prevent overheating.

3. Keep Away From Flammable Materials: Never place a heater near curtains, paper, or other flammable substances. These materials can catch fire from the heat emitted by the heater.
