Smoke Detectors Save Lives

According to the National Fire Protection Association

• Three out of five home fire deaths result from fires in properties without working smoke alarms
• More than one-third (38 percent) of home fire deaths result from fires in which no smoke alarms are present.
• The risk of dying in a home fire is cut in half in homes with working smoke alarms.

​For smoke alarms powered by a nine-volt battery

1. Test the alarm monthly.
2. Replace the batteries at least once every year.
3. Replace the entire smoke alarm every 10 years.
