Check Smoke Detectors


It is important to test your smoke detectors every month by using the test alarm button. Replace the batteries every spring and fall. When detectors are more then 10 years old it is necessary to buy new ones. Do not risk your life by using old smoke detectors! These ones can easily fail. Also vacuum the smoke detector at least once a year.
