Elm Hill Hose Co. #3 Issues Winter Safety Reminder Following Snowfall
December 12, 2025 | Elm Hill Hose Co. #3, Plymouth Borough Fire Service — With measurable snowfall recently impacting the NEPA region, Elm Hill Hose Co. #3 is reminding residents to take extra precautions with home heating systems. Fire officials stress the importance of keeping snow and ice cleared from all exterior power vents, noting that blocked vents can lead to dangerous carbon monoxide buildup inside the home and may cause furnaces to overheat, potentially resulting in a fire.
Residents who rely on chimneys to vent heating gases are also urged to ensure chimneys are free of obstructions such as bird or squirrel nests, debris, or internal structural failures, which can create similar risks. As winter conditions continue, the members of Elm Hill Hose Co. #3 of the Plymouth Borough Fire Service extend their wishes for a safe, warm, and happy holiday season to the entire community.
