Decorating For Holidays

Keep the holidays safe. Electrical or fire hazards lurking in your holiday lights can turn celebration to tragedy.


Safe holiday decorating will prevent you from being one of the 12,500 people in the emergency room each holiday season from falls, shocks and burns stemming from holiday decorating. Enjoy the season in style and with safety in mind using these lighting tips.

Inspect lights for cracked sockets, frayed, loose or bare wires or loose connections. Before replacing light bulbs or fuses, unplug light strings.

Don't string together more than three sets of lights into one extension cord.

Ourdoor lights should be plugged into a GFCI circuit. Never run lights through water, across driveways or sidewalks.

Make sure lights carry the "Underwriters Laboratories Approved" or "UL Listed" label for safety certification.

Have a safe and joyous holiday season. I look forward to serving your real estate needs in the future.
