Fresh tree:
- Be sure the needles are not falling off, that it is a fresh tree. When you bring it home be sure to trim two inches off the bottom of the tree and keep it full of water.
- Check the water every day to keep it from drying out.
- When the holidays are over take the tree out as soon as possible
Artificial tree:
- Tested UL approved tree.
- Check your lights, never have more than 3 strands put together. Make sure the connections and bulbs are not loose, plug is not falling apart, the insulation is not cracking on it.
Outside:
- Always use the plastic clips to hang your lights up, not nails. You always have a chance of clipping the wire .
- Again, never more than 3 strands together, also be sure they are outside lights, not indoor lights. Make sure to use the right extension cord for plugging them in.
- Unplug tree lights before going to bed or leaving home.
