Annually, U.S. fire departments respond to an average of 10,200 home fires each year involving grills, hibachis, or barbecues. With it being Memorial Day this weekend, SERVPRO of Geauga County urges homeowners to check the readiness of their outdoor cooking equipment – like grills and propane tanks – to help ensure summer cooking fires don’t become house fires.

General Grill Safety

  1. Check your grill for cleanliness and damage. Remove grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill before the first use and after each subsequent use.
  2. Position your grill well away from your home and deck railings, and out from under eaves and overhanging tree branches
  3. Keep children and pets at a safe distance – at least three feet from the grill
  4. Never leave the grill unattended when in use, and always grill outside.

Be sure to enjoy the warm weather and grill season but stay safe as well!
