Checking your Smoke Detector!

3/16/2019 (Permalink)

With daylight saving time upon us, this is one of the best times of year to ensure your smoke and fire alarms are up and running! The smoke alarm is only beneficial to you if it functions properly, which means the alarm goes off when smoke is detected. Smoke alarms must be tested at least once a month. This can be done by pressing the test button and ensuring that the alarm beeps. If it does not, you need to fix or replace it immediately so that it is operational. It is important to note that a smoke alarm should never be tested by bringing a flame or heat source near the alarm. The elderly  and those with disabilities who cannot reach the smoke alarms with ease can consider getting special smoke alarms installed. Be cautious that you do not damage your hearing while conducting this test.
