Generators are useful during power outages but must be used safely to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, electrical shocks, or fires. Always use them outdoors, at least 20 feet from windows and doors, keep them dry, and let them cool before refueling. Install carbon monoxide detectors on every level of your home for added safety. #SafetyTips #WinterReady
