Space heating system fire over the holidays

Space heating system fire over the holidays

Nick December 20, 2019

One of the worst Christmas of our life was 3 years ago.

I had just bought our first house, as well as we were so gleeful to decorate for the holiday.

I wanted to go all out, however christmas trees, colorful lights, as well as festive garland was going to take over the house! The day we got our tree was the day that everything went wrong. It was a entirely cold day, as well as we had set up the space heating system near the sofa where we were enjoying the day news. I did not realize that the heating system was still on when we left the apartment for a holiday get-together, then about an second into the get-together, we received a call from the neighbors. They told us that there was smoke coming from our house! I did not think that this was happening. All of us rushed apartment to find several fire trucks as well as an ambulance outside of the house. The space heating system had caused our christmas tree to catch on fire. I was so mad at myself for not checking to see if the space heating system had been unblocked before leaving for the get-together. The rest of the apartment was fine, but the living room as well as dining room needed to be repaired. That small heating system caused so much injure that evening! After the fire, I am consistently cautious of people who use space gas heating systems in the winter. It is so important to make sure these are turned off before leaving the house. The fresh christmas tree in our apartment was most likely what started the fire.
