Fireplace Safety Information

Fireplaces can pose a risk when not used with proper vigilance. Learn more about fireplace safety and the steps you can take -- including requesting a safety screen.

Request screen

Keep It Clear

Fireplaces reach extremely hot temperatures while in operation and during cool-down. Keep clothing, furniture, draperies and other combustibles away.

Use Safety Screen

Ensure that a safety screen is securely in place when your fireplace is in operation to reduce the risk of potential burns. Missing a screen? Find out how to get your screen here.

Be Vigilant

Never leave a fire unattended. Do not allow children or pets to get too close to the fireplace. Have your chimney and fireplace professionally inspected at least once a year. Install a carbon monoxide detector.

Danger: HOT

The glass and metal surrounding your fireplace will reach extreme temperatures and remain hot for a period after your product is shut off. Always supervise and keep children a safe distance away to prevent accidental contact with the glass.

Protect Your Family with a Safety Screen

A protective safety screen will help prevent skin from meeting the hot glass, greatly reducing the risk of serious burns. Do not remove the screen or alter it in any way.
