Stay safe during loadshedding by ensuring that candles are blown out, kept away from flammable materials like curtains, and placed in candleholders. Make sure you know the signs of carbon monoxide poisoning when using a generator. When cooking with gas, keep gas bottles outside. Have a fire extinguisher nearby and keep your cooking areas clean. #reducedemand #loadshedding
