It only takes a few minutes to make sure your fire hydrant is clear of snow and ice. Those few minutes could turn out to be life saving if a fire breaks out in yours or your neighbors home. Critical time is wasted when firefighters arrive on the scene of a fire and have to dig out a fire hydrant that has not been cleared.
Take those few minutes to dig out the fire hydrant in your yard and assist your neighbors that may not be able to do so.
