Electrical problems in the kitchen can be fatal so what should you do to keep your kitchen safe from potential fires and electrocution.
Firstly ensure that range hood filters are kept free of grease build-up and ovens and hot plates cleaned regularly to stop spilled fat and burnt food from building up.
If you do not have one, install a ventilation system, flue or exhaust fan in the kitchen to expel fumes while cooking or keep the window open when it is warm enough outside.
Switch off and unplug your toaster before trying to remove toast, muffins or crumpets that are caught inside the toaster and clean out bread crumbs on a regular basis from the toaster regularly as a build up can be hazardous
Never leave cooking unattended. If you must leave the kitchen then turn off the stove top and if you memory is not what it was, take something with you as a reminder that you are cooking such as a wooden spoon.
Disconnect all kitchen electrical appliances when you go to bed or when you leave the house.
