FOI  1871 - Electric heater fires

How many fires in your area were caused by electric heaters in each of the months listed ?

 How many deaths were caused by fires caused by electric heaters in each of the months listed?

 What was the age of the deceased in each case?

 The spreadsheet attached has been completed using data available from the Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service Incident Recording System.

Please be aware that there is no specific ignition source category on our data systems for electric heaters. The information provided is based on the ignition source category of Heating equipment >> Heater/Fire which also includes open fires. I have therefore only included Heater/Fires with a power source of electricity.
