Fireworks Safety
Consumer fireworks are safe when used correctly. We're committed to making sure every celebration is both spectacular and responsible.
Essential Safety Rules
Follow these rules every time, without exception.
Every firework includes mandatory safety instructions. Read them every time — don't assume you know a product.
If a firework fails to ignite, wait 20 minutes, then soak it in a bucket of water. Never attempt to re-light.
Maintain a minimum clearance equal to the distance listed on the product label. More is always better.
Light one device, move away quickly, and wait until it's fully finished before approaching.
Keep a garden hose or large bucket of water nearby at all times. Soak spent fireworks before disposing.
Check local ordinances before lighting anything. Fire restrictions change — always verify before your celebration.
In Case of Emergency
Call 911 immediately for any fire, injury, or emergency. For burns, run cool (not cold) water over the affected area for at least 10 minutes. Do not apply ice.
