Microwave Fire in Clairemont Mesa East?

3/8/2022 (Permalink)

A microwave oven sits on a countertop. We restore fire damage in San Diego, “Like it never even happened.”

Clairemont Mesa East families are busy. Microwave ovens are convenient to use, and they simplify our lives and make it easy to heat up a meal or quickly defrost dinner. SERVPRO® of Mission Valley East offers these microwave oven safety tips from the National Fire Protection Association:

  • PURCHASE a microwave oven that is listed by a qualified testing laboratory. Make sure to complete and return the product registration card. This way, the manufacturer can reach you if there is a recall on the product.
  • PLUG the microwave oven directly into the wall outlet — never use an extension cord
  • MAKE sure the microwave oven is at a safe height, within easy reach of all users
  • OPEN food slowly, away from the face. Hot steam or the food itself can cause burns.
  • FOOD heats unevenly in microwave ovens. Stir and test before eating or giving to children.
  • NEVER heat a baby bottle in the microwave. Since a microwave oven heats unevenly, it can create hot pockets, leading to burns. Warm a bottle up in a bowl of warm, not hot or boiling, water, or by running it under the tap.
