Keep safe this summer

The Team from Fire and Emergency NZ – Fire Safety

Barbecues are the focal point for a lot of Summer entertaining. Here is a few helpful tips to keep your Whanau safe while BBQ'n.


- If you've got bubbles, you've got troubles. Before using your BBQ, check your BBQ for gas leaks using the soapy water test.


- Keep looking while you are cooking!


- Don't Drink and Fry. Have a drink after the cooking is done.


- Don't add flammable fluid to an already lit fire.


- Never BBQ in enclosed areas.


- Dispose of hot coals properly and douse them in plenty of water.
