  If using an electric heater, make sure it's connected to a safe and secure socket with proper amperage and wiring, Saratoga Springs Fire Chief Robert Cogan said.
  
  "There's a lot of do-it-yourselfers and a lot of undersized wires," he said, especially in older, renovated buildings.
  ...
  Cogan recalled an incident that occurred years ago in Saratoga Springs in which a man inadvertently refueled a kerosene heater with gasoline.The explosion sent him to a medical center with severe burns, and the resulting blaze gutted his home.
  ...
  Above all, Cogan said, homeowners should remember the basics -- make sure smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors function properly, contain fresh batteries and hang in strategic locations; keep combustible materials away from fire places and wood stoves; and never leave a candle unattended.
  
  "No matter what the season, everybody should have an emergency exit plan and a check list of fire hazards," he said.
