Fires Tips:
Before lighting a fire, always first remove any wrapping paper, green boughs, or other combustible materials or decorations from the fireplace area.
Before lighting a fire, make sure that the fireplace's flue is open.
Always keep a screen in front of a burning fire in your fireplace. Your screen is designed to keep the fire in the fireplace. Let it do its job.
Before closing the flue, make absolutely sure that any fire is completely extinguished.
Do not burn wrappings, tissue paper, or newspaper in your fireplace. Doing so risks causing chimney or roof fires.
Do not leave a fire burning unattended in your fireplace for any extended period of time.
