Focus on Fire Safety: Appliance Fires
Most homes have a multitude of electrical appliances ranging from small kitchen items such as toasters and microwaves to major appliances like clothes dryers and dishwashers.

Appliance fire safety is a matter of keeping your appliances in good working order, as well as using them as they were intended.
