Did you know that many of the home fires that take place each year may be traced back to a piece of heating equipment? According to the American Red Cross and the National Fire Protection Association’s figures, it’s true. The good news is our hardware store in Cincinnati has the supplies needed to reduce your family’s odds of being caught up in such a disaster. Here’s more:

Based on the NFPA’s reports, a lot of our nation’s home heating fires are caused by three main things. Those three things are dirty conditions, poor positioning and mechanical malfunction. Our hardware store in Cincinnati can help you avoid at least two of those situations.

For starters, let’s take a brief look at dirty heating equipment. It was the first cause mentioned in the various reports. The dirty conditions referred to by the experts involve such things as clogged furnace filters, creosote buildup and fuel oil spills. As such, they recommend that people change their furnace filters often and keep fuel residue to a minimum.

That’s where the staff at our hardware store in Cincinnati can help. We keep an array of different furnace filters and cleaning supplies on hand. So you’ll never have to worry about being without a clean furnace filter or the items needed to clean up flammable spills.

Next, let’s talk about mechanical failure. It is the second thing that our Cincinnati hardware store’s staff can help you avoid. That’s because we make it a point to keep heating and electrical supplies in stock too. The list of supplies includes items like smoke alarms, circuit testers and thermostats. Thus, you should be able to find what you need to make any necessary repairs as needed.
