Important ways to help you protect your family members in difficult situations
ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwired - Dec 14, 2016) - Enviro-Log®, Inc., a leader in eco-friendly products for home heating and outdoor activities, urges households to prepare for extreme winter weather by following important safety tips that can help protect family members.
"With temperatures forecasted to drop well below zero in the northern parts of the country over the next two weeks, it's crucial that you are prepared for extreme weather and winter storms," said Ross McRoy, president of Enviro-Log, Inc. "It is important to make sure all family members know what to do in these situations and have access to emergency kits stored in homes and vehicles. Too often people don't think about preparing until after the situation has occurred and they underestimate how long it will take for help to arrive."
McRoy stresses some key essentials to ensure families are prepared.
Have an emergency kit in your house.
Carry a survival kit in your vehicle.
McRoy also encourages families to use extra caution and follow proper safety guidelines when operating portable generators. McRoy recommends Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines on proper generator use, which can be found at: http://www.osha.gov/OshDoc/data_Hurricane_Facts/portable_generator_safety.pdf
