Nothing tastes better this time of year than a burger, hot dog, or some other treat done to perfection on an outdoor grille. Unfortunately, grilling does carry some risks. According to our contacts at the Consumer Product Safety Commission, over 22000 injuries each year are attributed to grilling incidents. Here are some things to think about: • For propane grills, check the gas tank for leaks before use in the months ahead. For more information on grilling safety contact our Fire Prevention Lieutenant at 610-898-1452, Extension 5.
