Fire Safety in the Kitchen : The kitchen is one of the more dangerous rooms in the house. Open flames, sharp knives, hot pots, and scalding liquids can cause serious injuries. Look at your kitchen from the perspective of an accident waiting to happen. Are papers stacked too close to the range or cooktop? Are knives easily accessible to children? Here are some suggestions to consider in relation to preventing burns and/or a fire: Keep the gas cooktop away from open windows where wind could extinguish the cooking flames. Keep the handles of pots and frying pans turned inward on the kitchen range so that they cannot be knocked over by accident. To prevent grease fires, keep the stove clear of anything flammable, including pot holders, napkins, and towels. by Taj, TNFRS
