Don’t Be Too Chill About Your Grill

Now that summer is unofficially here, New Yorkers are firing up their grills. During National Safety Month, which kicks off this week, OEM reminds you to barbecue safely. Never use a propane grill on a balcony, terrace, or roof. Position the grill in an open area at least 10 feet away from buildings, deck railings, eaves, and overhanging branches. Wear short or tight-fitting sleeves. Once lit, never leave a grill unattended. Learn more about barbecue and summer fire safety from the Fire Department Read the Tip of the Week online
