Always use alternate heaters safely.

If you are cutting back on propane or oil use, you may be using an alternate source of heating such as a wood stove or portable heater. Make sure all stoves and heaters are installed correctly, vented correctly, and that you have carbon monoxide monitors installed in your home. Also make sure that the vents are clear. In the past few years there have been tragedies in both Maine and New Hampshire from carbon monoxide poisoning.
