House fires during the winter can be a threat

If you have fire damage due to a heating malfunction or other issue, count on SERVPRO of Hershey/Harrisburg East to fully restore your home

House fires can be a threat during the winter months. They’re even more common in states like Pennsylvania, where the temperatures get cold and adequate home heating is vital.

Many of these winter fires are caused by how we heat our homes. For example, if your space heater doesn’t have an automatic shutoff mechanism, it can turn over and cause a fire while it’s still running. Problems with furnaces and accidents with other appliances happen, too.

The holiday season has some extra fire hazards of which homeowners should be aware. Christmas tree accidents are a leading cause of house fires.. Fires caused by overflowing pots and pans that are left alone on the stove too long are common this time of year, too.

People who live in the Hershey, Harrisburg, Hummelstown and Middletown areas can count on our team if their homes ever need fire damage repairs or restoration work.
