Winter Weather Tips

January 18, 2008

Here are some important winter weather tips:

If you need to report a sewer stoppage, emergency roadway repair, or urgent animal control issue, call 311 (727-8311 from a cell phone or outside Hampton).

Place space heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn, including furniture, people, pets, and curtains.

Turn off space heaters before leaving a room or going to sleep.

Supervise children and pets at all times when a portable space heater is in use.

Keep young children away from working wood stoves and heaters to avoid contact burn injuries.
