Spring storms in Honolulu bring more than just rain — they can also trigger electrical surges and outages that increase fire risk. Before storm season ramps up, now is the perfect time to perform a quick fire safety check at home.
1. Inspect Electrical Wiring
Frayed or outdated wiring is a common cause of house fires. Have an electrician inspect your panel, outlets, and major appliances if they haven’t been checked recently.
2. Clean Dryer Vents
Lint buildup is one of the leading causes of residential fires. Clean vents thoroughly to improve airflow and reduce risk.
3. Check Smoke Detectors & Fire Extinguishers
Replace batteries in smoke detectors and ensure you have at least one working extinguisher in your kitchen, garage, and near bedrooms.
