Test your smoke alarms

Keeping a smoke alarm isn’t the way to rescue but checking them regularly whether they are working or not will rescue you at the time you need them.

Well there are two types of smoke alarms, battery operated and automatic one which is fixed by the electrician itself and is connected properly by wiring.

If you are having the battery operated then make sure to check the batteries on time and change if needed while Packers and Movers Chennai suggest you to go with the automatic one as they are better for long run and you will not have to check them again and again.

Check the natural gas/ LPG system in your home

Check the gas wires, leaking valves, anything flammable thing near gas wires should be removed as they can catch and spread fire all around.

Most of the times kitchen fire is caused by LPG so make sure to check it regularly so as to avoid any such accidents.

Packers And Movers Chennai to Hyderabad suggests you to turn off everything if you smell gas around the kitchen as anything can catch fire. Open all the windows so that all the gas can go out safely.

If any switch is open then turn off it by wearing a rubber sandal or have a wooden stick in hand. Be alert whenever such happens and especially when moving out for 2-3 days or more, turn off the regulator to be free from fire accidents.

Check the air conditioning and heating units in your home

Hire a professional engineer to check the air conditioner and other appliances every year. Clean the AC coils properly as this will help the fan motor to work more efficiently and also save your pocket on electricity bills.

Also don’t forget to provide lubrication to parts where needed. While in heaters, make sure to clean the resistance coils and other parts during the end of winter season as dust may accumulate in the parts because during summer season such appliances are not in use during that time.

Local Packers and Movers Chennai suggest you to hear the sounds near the appliances like if you hear some tapping sound or grumping sounds then it may be an indication of loose parts that should be fixed as early as possible.

Avoid using extension cords for air conditioners

This is definitely not an advisable activity because using an extension cord for heavy appliances can result in spark across wiring and can turn in a big accident. So always remember that heavy appliances like television and refrigerator should have their own and separate cords. Also there’ll be mess all round house due to the wires roaming and you’ve to be much careful with small kids because little ignorance can cause an accident with them also you’ve to be alert with water because once water gets inside the cord it can give you a shock and current.

Maintain your fireplace correctly

Also check that the wood you use in the fireplace should be dry so that ashes of wood don’t pop out. Some woods pop a lot when burnt so take care of that as that can injure you accidently. Clean your chimney at least once in a year.
