| Post subject: | Smoke Detectors |
Posted this on Milton Mom's in response to a question. Thought I would also share the info here. (Hubby is with a fire department) *vacuum smoke detectors regularly - at least monthly *change furnace filter. The dust in your furnace (esp. from the summer) can cause detectors to "chirp" *if your detectors are more than six years old, replace them all *consider having one battery back up detector outside of the sleeping area. Change the batteries every time you change your clocks. (Hard wired detectors will not work in a power outage). *Most of all DO NOT unplug your detectors!! October is fire safety month. |

Thanks for posting this, I don't think we can be reminded enough to take some simple precautions that could save your life. |
