Protect
your children from electrical shocks or burn injuries to fingers or
hands from electrical outlets. Annually, the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission estimates hospital emergency rooms treat over 3,900
persons for injuries associated with electrical receptacle outlets.
Young children account for about 1/3 of those treated, usually from
inserting metal objects like keys into the outlets. Replace standard
electrical outlet covers to improve baby safety. An energy saving
insulating gasket around the perimeter of the outlet cover seals
against air leakages into and out of your home.
Child Restraint Design: Spring-loaded sliding doors automatically keep

Energy Efficiency: An
