Jordan: In light of the winter chill at night, here are some important recommendations for safe use of heating equipment.

Arab Weather - With Jordan being affected by a relatively cold air mass, the Kingdom is experiencing a significant drop in temperatures, especially at night. This sharp drop in temperatures will make it necessary to use heating devices, given the expected winter chill.

Forecasts indicate that temperatures may reach very low levels in some areas, especially in the plains and desert. Citizens are therefore advised to use heating safely and ensure proper ventilation in homes to avoid the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

How to handle heating devices carefully

With the return of cold nights set to continue in the coming days, it's important for everyone to know how to handle heating appliances carefully to ensure their safety and avoid serious accidents. Here are some important tips for using heating appliances safely during the cold snap:

Choose a suitable location for the fireplace so that it does not obstruct movement or cause furniture and carpets to fall.

Supervise children and do not leave them alone near heaters.

Avoid placing the heater near curtains or flammable materials.

Do not use the heater for cooking, heating food, or drying clothes, especially if children are nearby.

Always monitor the heater and do not leave it on while sleeping, for fear of a fire or suffocation.

Keep a usable fire blanket and practice how to use it properly.

And God knows best.
