The nights are getting cooler, and space heaters are coming out of storage.
Before you plug yours in, give it some space. NFPA recommends keeping portable heaters at least 3 feet (1 metre) from anything that can burn and plugging them directly into a wall outlet — never an extension cord or power bar.
And when you leave the room or head to bed, turn it off and unplug it.
Some ideas are better left under the sheet.
Even LED lights can become a fire hazard when cords or components are damaged. Before decorating:
• Choose certified/approved light sets from reputable manufacturers.
• Check cords for cracks, fraying, exposed wires or damaged plugs.
• Replace damaged sets — don’t try to make them last another season.
• Keep lights and electrical decorations clear of fabric and other combustible materials.
A quick check before you plug them in can prevent a much bigger problem later.

Pasadena Fire Rescue is saddened to learn of the passing of former Fire Chief Gerald Wight, who passed peacefully on August 16 at the age of 92.
Gerald dedicated 30 years of service to the fire department, including serving as Fire Chief. His commitment to public service extended throughout our community through his long career with the Town of Pasadena, where he served as Town Superintendent before retiring in 1995, as well as through his service as a volunteer ambulance driver.
Gerald’s legacy of service continues within our department through his grandson, Lieutenant Jeffrey Clarke.
On behalf of the officers and members of Pasadena Fire Rescue, we extend our sincere condolences to Lt. Clarke and the entire Wight family during this difficult time.
We thank Gerald for his many years of leadership, dedication and service to Pasadena.
Rest easy, Chief.
