Heating Fire Safety
Each winter the high cost of
home heating fuels and utilities causes many Americans to search for
alternate sources of home heating. The use of wood burning stoves is
growing and space heaters are selling rapidly. Fireplaces are burning
wood and man-made logs. All these methods of heating may be acceptable.
They are however, a major contributing factor in home fires.
Many of these fires can be
prevented. You can prevent the loss of life and property resulting from
heating fires by being able to identify potential hazards and following
a few safety tips:
-
All heaters need space. Keep anything that can burn at least 3 feet
away from heating equipment.
-
Use heating equipment that has the label of a recognized testing
laboratory.
-
Make sure all fuel-burning heating equipment is vented to the
outside to avoid carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning.
-
Only purchase portable space heaters with an automatic shut-off so
if they’re tipped over they will shut off.
-
Allow wood stove and fireplace ashes to cool before disposing of
them in a tightly covered metal container. Keep the container at
least 10 feet away from your home.

Attention Colonial Village Residents
To all residents of
Colonial Village regarding floor drains which are connected to the sewer
system. Please be aware that such floor drains, in accordance with East
Greenville Borough Code Section 78-10, are not a permissible use within the
Borough and are therefore prohibited. If you have a floor drain that is
connected to the sewer system, you are required to plug and cement shut this
drain. These floor drains may be located in your utility closet connected to
your kitchen and are often used to receive water from your air conditioning
unit. If you need help in identifying whether or not you have the described
floor drain, please call UMJA for assistance.
This provides
notification to all customers of the Upper Montgomery Joint Authority that
neither UMJA nor the Borough of East Greenville will be liable for any sewage
backup damages that enter your residence through this type of floor drain.
We would also
recommend that during storm events you reduce your water usage until the storm
resides.
We appreciate your
cooperation on this matter; please do not hesitate to call UMJA should you need
assistance.
