I'm John, and in today's video, we'll be delving into essential water safety tips for your home.
Water within your home or yard poses potential drowning risks and other hazards, such as slippery floors or scalding temperatures. Practicing water safety tips is paramount to maintaining a secure environment for you and your loved ones.
1. Promptly clean up water spills:
Spills from tubs or sinks can create slippery surfaces, increasing the risk of falls and serious injuries, including head trauma. Ensure to mop or wipe up water spills immediately to prevent accidents. Consider placing mats near tubs and sinks to absorb spills and prevent them from reaching bare floors.
2. Adjust your water temperature:
Scalding water can result in severe burns. Lower the temperature setting on your water heater to below 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Even after adjusting the temperature, always check the water to ensure it is not too hot before using it for bathing or household tasks.
3. Adhere to boil water notices:
In the event that local authorities issue notices to boil water, it is imperative to comply with these directives. Such notices are issued when there is a risk of harmful microbes contaminating local water sources. Continue using boiled water until authorities confirm that it is safe to revert to regular water usage.
