Window Safety Tips
- Keep a close watch on children, and discourage them from playing around windows.
- Keep all windows closed and latched when children are present.
- Open double-hung windows from the top, rather than from the bottom.
- Only open high windows for ventilation when children are present.
- Never expect a screen to protect your child from falling out the window. They can easily come loose.
- Stop children from jumping on beds or furniture near windows.
- Install ASTM-approved safety latches and devices on windows wherever small children are regularly present.
