Fireworks bring excitement, color, and joy to every celebration — but with that power comes responsibility. At Elevated Fireworks, safety is just as important as sparkle. Whether you're lighting sparklers in the backyard or launching shells at a party, following key safety tips helps ensure the fun doesn’t go up in smoke.

Here’s your essential guide to firework safety.

🧯 1. Read Labels & Instructions

Every firework comes with safety guidelines.
✅ Always read instructions before lighting
✅ Pay attention to warning labels
✅ Use only as directed — don’t modify or combine fireworks

🔥 2. Choose a Safe Location

• Launch only in open areas, away from buildings, trees, or dry grass
• Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby
• Never light fireworks indoors or near flammable materials

👀 3. Keep a Safe Distance

• Spectators should stay at least 25–100 feet away depending on the firework type
• Only one person should light the firework
• Back away immediately after lighting

❌ 4. Never Relight a Dud

If a firework doesn’t go off:
🚫 Don’t approach it right away
💦 Soak it in water before disposal
🛑 Never try to relight or fix it — it could still ignite

🧒 5. Supervise Children Closely

• Never let young kids handle fireworks
• Sparklers can burn over 1,000°F — supervise at all times
• Consider using snaps, smoke bombs, or poppers for younger users

🧨 6. Use Legal Fireworks Only

• Check your local laws and regulations
• Only purchase from licensed, reputable sellers like Elevated Fireworks
• Don’t use homemade or illegal fireworks

🧼 7. Clean Up Carefully

• Douse used fireworks in water
• Dispose in a metal trash can away from buildings
• Never leave debris behind — especially in parks or outdoor spaces
