Winter safety tips for heating and frost protection
State officials offer advice to combat winter hazards at home. Seal doors and windows, vent fireplaces, use plastic for storm windows, and keep sunlight in on sunny sides. Clear radiators, unplug unused devices, check cords, and vent fuel heaters. Use blankets on cold walls, limit hot water, and thaw pipes with safe methods. Wear multiple thin layers to prevent frostbite and guard against carbon monoxide. For burns, cold water and sterile compresses, seek medical help for severe cases. Farmers should have kerosene burners professionally checked and kept away from stored hay.
