October is Fire Prevention Month!

10/14/2016

​This year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign, “Don’t Wait – Check the Date! Replace Smoke Alarms Every 10 Years,” represents the final year of a three-year effort to educate the public about basic but essential elements of smoke alarm safety.
​
The National Fire Protection Association is focused on these key messages:
  •  Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years.
  • Make sure you know how old all the smoke alarms are in your home.
  • To find out how old a smoke alarm is, look at the date of manufacture on the back of the alarm.

Some additional tips for fire safety:
  • Your home should have a smoke alarm on every level.
  • Smoke alarms should be outside each sleeping area and inside each bedroom. 
  • Interconnect smoke alarms, so that when one sounds, they all do.
  • Replace smoke alarm batteries twice a year, at the beginning and end of Daylight Savings Time.
  • Don’t leave candles burning, especially if you have animals that may knock them over.
  • If you smoke, use a deep, sturdy ashtray and never smoke in bed.
  • Only use one heat-producing appliance (coffee maker, toaster, etc.) plugged into an outlet at a time.
  • Make sure extension cords are not running across doorways or under carpets.
  • Consider a home sprinkler system, especially if you are building a new home.
