Please keep this free of ice and snow

News Release

********************

Due to the extreme weather conditions that we have been experiencing in our area, North Bay Fire & Emergency Services reminds you to check the perimeter of your home to ensure that the gas meter and gas appliance exhaust vents are free of ice and snow.

A blocked vent could result in carbon monoxide problems.

Carefully remove snow from these areas, being cautious not to strike connections which could become loose and be aware of their location when clearing snow from the roof.

Also keep fire hydrants and exit doors free of snow accumulations – in an emergency your life may depend on them.
