I have consistently been afraid of using space heaters in our house, and now, I genuinely have a reason to be! Our neighbors house, right next to ours, just burnt down yupterday because of a space heater, and i don’t like to talk terrible about people, but our neighbors were not the kind of people that you wanted to live next to, and they were consistently screaming and fighting throughout the day and evening. They were not easy people to get along with, but my buddy and I tried our best to be kind to them. They did not spend money their gas bill for so long that the gas business turned off their gas! Because of that, they did not have a working boiler. Their only source of heat was electric space heaters. They had about three of them in their house. They used them 24/7, and they did not make sure that the outlets were made for that much use. I tried to warn them about using only electric space heaters 24/7. It was genuinely not a wonderful idea, and it was a fire hazard; Everytime I mentioned it, they told me that they were about to get their gas turned back on, but it never happened. They just continued to use their electric space heaters. It would have been cheaper for them to use their gas boiler, but I don’t guess that they cared at that point. I feel so terrible about their house, but thankfully, no one was hurt. I hope that they make better choices for heating their new house
