Our local San Diego City, South West team is a leader in storm damage restoration services in Golden Hill. Staying safe during a power outage requires a combination of preparedness, caution, and resourcefulness. Here are some power outage safety tips:

Begin by preparing an emergency kit well in advance. This kit should include essentials like flashlights, extra batteries, a battery-powered or hand-crank radio, first aid supplies, non-perishable food, bottled water, a manual can opener, and copies of important documents.

Maintain a comfortable temperature in your home, dressing in layers or using blankets for warmth during cold weather and opening windows for ventilation when it's hot.

Exercise caution with perishable foods in your refrigerator and freezer, keeping their doors closed to maintain temperature. Consider transferring items to a cooler with ice packs if the outage persists.

When using a generator, operate it outdoors in a well-ventilated area to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Never run a generator inside your home or garage.

Ensure a supply of clean drinking water and store it in containers with secure lids.

Prioritize safety when using candles or oil lamps for lighting, never leaving them unattended.

Maintain communication with friends and family through charged cell phones and backup power banks, using text messages to conserve power.

Prepare for medical needs by having backup power sources for medical equipment and notifying your utility company about life-support equipment.
