Now is a good time to "Change you Clocks, Change Your (Smoke Detector) Batteries"
{This applies to smoke detectors that have removable batteries!)
It's a good time to test the smoke detector!
It's also a good time to check to see when your smoke detector was made! If it is 10 or more years old, REPLACE!!
Every year people die needlessly in house fires because they have no working smoke detectors. According to USFA (U.S. Fire Administration) article from 12/2006, fire departments responded to 388,500 home structure fires in the United States that claimed the lives of 3,145 people. The article goes on to say that while working Smoke Detectors are proven to save lives, 49% of households, over 4 million, still do NOT have Smoke Detectors!! Of the ones that DO have Smoke Detectors, 20% have non-working detectors due to dead or missing batteries.
Smoke detectors provide an early warning of the fire BEFORE it spreads too far. Having this early warning AND an escape plan that is practiced provide the best chance of surviving a house fire.
