Time To Replace Your Smoke Detector Batteries & Review Your Fire Safety Plan!

Here's a quick life safety tip that could just save your life or the life of a loved one, a close friend or even a complete stranger.

Sadly, statistics reveal that every two and half hours someone is killed in a residential fire in America. 

During an average year, more than 20,000 people suffer injuries related to a home fire. Most fires are PREVENTABLE!

As you know, for many areas across the nation, this coming Sunday, March 14, 2010 is the day that we all lose one hour as we move our clocks forward 60-minutes for Daylight Savings Time.

This is a great time to take just a few minutes to inspect all of your home’s smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and REPLACE each unit’s batteries with brand new, FRESH batteries.

We’re all very busy with everything going on in our lives but, I encourage you to take just a few minutes TODAY to make sure all your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are in good working order. It’s also a great time to make sure your fire extinguishers and fire safety ladders are in good working order as well.

Don't forget to talk with your loved ones about the importance of fire prevention and even take a few minutes to review and practice your home and work fire escape plan.  The life you save could be your own!
