👩🏻🚒🔥🫵 Did you know that winter fires that are not properly extinguished can smoulder underground for months and re-ignite as a wildfire in the spring? Whether you're hosting a family campfire or doing a controlled burn on your property, fire safety should always be top of mind – even when there's snow on the ground. Remember: ❌ Don't burn if the wind speed is over 15 km/hr. Wind can pick up sparks or embers and start a wildfire. ✔️ After burning, soak the area, stir and soak again. Make sure heat and smoke are gone. The site should be cool to the touch.

Get peace of mind knowing that Aspen provides FREE inspections and will help you through the insurance process if a damage is found.
