Do you have an emergency preparedness plan?

Recent weather events in parts of the United States have shown the importance of having an emergency preparedness plan.  Often, weather disasters strike quickly and with little warning.  Things that you take for granted may become difficult if not impossible to deal with.  Prolonged periods without electricity, for example, can cause problems not only terms of comfort but also safety.

If you or a family member has special medical needs, this certainly adds another dimension to your planning and could very well be lifesaving.

Putting your plan together will take some time and work.  In the best scenario, you will never need it.  The reality, though, is that you will and you will be glad you took the time to do it.

Many states have guides that you can download and print out.  Since we’re located in Pennsylvania, we have placed our state’s Emergency Preparedness Guide on our site.  Pennsylvania Emergency Preparedness Guide It’s very comprehensive, and may be a good start in your efforts to protect the safety of your family.  If you would like the large print edition, or one in another language, click here for the download page.

We also have a simple 2-page brochure that gives you a fast checklist.  Emergency Preparedness Brochure.

 

There’s an old adage that says “Those who fail to plan, plan to fail”.  Don’t let that be true of you.

    *Note: If you have a terra cotta clay chimney
    flue lining, be sure to measure the true length and width of the
    inside of your chimney flue space.

    *If there is a terra cotta clay flue liner, does it protrude out of
    the top of the chimney at least 2 inches? If there are at least 2
    inches and the terra cotta clay is in good condition, you will use
    our stainless steel, terra cotta top plate that has a 1 1⁄2inch edge
    that goes all the way around (like a shoebox lid).

    *If your terra cotta clay flue is in bad shape at the top, you may
    need to just take a hammer and tap all around that terra cotta,
    taking it away to make the surface flat at the top of your chimney.
    In that case, you will simply use the flat top plate that comes with
    our liner kit.



    *Note: If you have a terra cotta clay chimney
    flue lining, be sure to measure the true length and width of the
    inside of your chimney flue space.

    *If it is on the back of the stove, is it parallel with the back of the stove or is it at an angle, like 45 degrees?

    *If it is at an angle you will use an insert stove adaptor (an insert liner kit) rather than a two-part tee with cleanout cap.


    Usually pellet stoves have an exhaust hole id of 3 inches. However, if you are going up more than 15 feet to the top of your chimney you need to use a pipe and/or flex liner that is 4 inches diameter.





    If you are only venting a hot water heater then the exhaust hole diameter is probably 3 inch diameter. If it is 3 inch diameter and you are going up more than 15 feet to the top of your chimney, you must use a 4 inch diameter flexible liner or ridged pipe for proper draft. We also suggest to go ahead and use a 4 inch diameter flexible liner or ridged pipe even if the total length is 15 feet or less.


    Not the depth or any other dimension inside your fireplace.

    Most gas log fireplaces require an 8 inch liner kit or rigid kit. But do not assume that is the case for the gas log fireplace kit you are installing. Obey the requirements for that specific unit that are in your installation/instruction manual.
