Also, is an explanation on how your home insurance keeps you covered.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Man down<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As a homeowner, you are responsible for keeping your property safe. If someone trips over a rug on the way to the bathroom and is injured, you could be held financially responsible. Fortunately, a standard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatflorida.com\/florida-homeowners-insurance\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">home insurance policy<\/a>includes $1,000 in medical coverage for injuries to guests, per person. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatflorida.com\/florida-general-liability-insurance\">Liability coverage<\/a> is also included if you are sued for injuries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fired up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Super Bowl Sunday is a big grilling day.

Dwelling coverage pays for the cost of damage or destruction to your home. If you plan to use a fryer, follow the following safety tips:<\/p>\n<p>Keep the fryer at least 10 feet away from your home and never cook in the garage or on a wood deck.<\/p>\n<p>Place the fryer on a level surface.<\/p>\n<p>Keep children at a safe distance from the fryer.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t use too much oil and over fill the fryer.<\/p>\n<p>Monitor the temperature and use caution when touching the fryer, the lid and handles can be very hot.<\/p>\n<p>Keep a fire extinguisher close by.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Illegal use of hands<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To be on the safe side, consider hiding away your treasures that could be easily pocketed.<\/p>\n<p>Keep an updated picture of your valuables for insurance inventory,\u201d says <a _blank=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/dustyns\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Dustyn Shroff<\/a>, Vice President of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greatflorida.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">GreatFlorida Insurance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While you don\u2019t expect your friends to steal your stuff, you don\u2019t always know everyone who comes over on game day.
