Fireplace Safety Information
Fireplaces can pose a risk when not used with proper vigilance. Learn more about fireplace safety and the steps you can take -- including requesting a safety screen.
Request screenDanger: HOT
The glass and metal surrounding your fireplace will reach extreme temperatures and remain hot for a period after your product is shut off. Always supervise and keep children a safe distance away to prevent accidental contact with the glass.
Protect Your Family with a Safety Screen
A protective safety screen will help prevent skin from meeting the hot glass, greatly reducing the risk of serious burns. Do not remove the screen or alter it in any way.
