Fire up that grill! May is National BBQ Month! The month of May is great for cook outs and BBQs, especially with Memorial Day right around the corner. As a homeowner, it is important that you are ready to fire up that grill, safely of course! It is also important to make sure you are covered for a busy summer season. Grilling and cookouts are fun but can be risky, too. Luckily, our Connecticut insurance agency has a few safety tips to offer, as well as reliable coverage!
• Make sure your grill is set up far enough away from your home to avoid a fire.
• Inspect the grill for any gas leaks, cracks or holes.
• Be extra cautious when using a charcoal grill, especially when you go to light the coals.
• Do not leave the grill unattended while you are hosting a party, especially if there are children and animals around.
• Make sure you purchase and use the proper grilling utensils and tools for your own safety.
• Do not grill while intoxicated.
Keeping these safety tips in mind, you should not have a problem grilling for your friends and family this season! What better way to celebrate National BBQ month?
