Smoke Alarm Safety
5/11/2017 (Permalink)
A few Sundays ago we lost an hour of sleep when the time changed. I think we are all finally getting used to the time change. The longer days are worth it now! This time of year we also are reminded to change the batteries in our smoke alarms. You should also check the manufacturing date on your smoke alarm and replace it if it is over ten years old.
Since half of home fire deaths occurring between the hours of 11 PM- 7 AM a smoke alarm can be the difference between just losing your home and losing your life. For more information on different types of smoke alarms and optimal alarm placement please see https://www.usfa.fema.gov/prevention/technology/.
