Q: Which is safer: an oil or a gas furnace?

• <div><p>Generally, an oil furnace is considered safer than a gas furnace for several reasons. While both types of furnaces can produce carbon monoxide, a leak in an oil furnace is easier to detect due to the smell. Oil furnaces also don't connect to a gas pipeline, which reduces the chance of a fuel leak. Most importantly, heating oil is not combustible, whereas natural gas is highly flammable. This means there is a much lower risk of combustion or explosion with an oil furnace. However, an oil furnace can still pose a fire hazard if it tips over.</p></div>

Q: Can you test your fire extinguisher with a small amount?

• <div><p>Testing a fire extinguisher by discharging even a small amount will void the warranty on the product. Pushing down the pressure pin on top and waiting to see if it pops up is the best way to ensure it&rsquo;s still pressurized. If you&rsquo;re concerned about your extinguisher, hire an expert for a professional inspection. </p></div>

Q: Are dead palm fronds a fire hazard?

• <div><p>Yes, dead palm tree fronds are a fire hazard. The leaves become highly combustible because the dead fronds don&rsquo;t fall off the tree themselves, especially in hot, sunny climates. In fact, many wildfires start from dead palm fronds. Palm trees can also easily catch fire from lighting, electrical power lines, and fireworks. So, cutting off dead palm fronds before they become a fire hazard is important.</p></div>

Q: What are the problems with fire doors?

• <div><p>There aren&rsquo;t many problems with fire doors except that they slow down or cut off ventilation at the higher rating levels. For this reason, work with a professional to ensure you have adequate ventilation throughout your house or workspace. The sealing around a fire door is meant to allow for a specific amount of ventilation and will need regular inspections to ensure adequate airflow. </p></div>

Q: What is the UL Safety Certification?

• <div><p>Some Christmas lights are marked as being &ldquo;UL Safety Certified&rdquo; or Underwriters Laboratories Safety Certified. This lab is a trusted source for determining the safety standards of electrical products&mdash;you should make sure your Christmas lights have this label. Brush up on other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/7-electrical-safety-tips-homeowners-should-know.htm">electrical safety tips</a> before installing any lighting features. </p></div>
