The Chattanooga Fire Department prefers that you use flashlights or flameless candles for light. However, if you are going to use candles, you are encouraged to take the following precautions:
- Blow out all candles when you leave the room or go to bed.
- Avoid the use of candles in the bedroom and other areas where people may fall asleep.
- Keep candles at least 12 inches away from anything that can burn.
- Use candle holders that are sturdy, and won't tip over easily.
- Put candle holders on a sturdy, uncluttered surface.
- Never leave a child alone in a room with a burning candle.
- Keep matches and lighters up high and out of children's reach, in a locked cabinet.
