Smoke Alarms - Still Saving Lives!

1)12% of homes without alarms have more than half of the fires.

2)It is estimated that a third of the smoke alarms in place are not working, often due to failure to replace a worn out battery.

The Silent Killer - Winter Carbon Monoxide Safety Tips

Often referred to as the silent killer because you can’t see, smell or taste it, Carbon Monoxide is the leading cause of accidental poisoning in the U.S. CO is a by-product of combustion produced by cars, stoves, water heaters, fireplaces, gas grills and a number of other appliances.

The following safety tips will help residents avoid CO and other dangers associated with power outages and changes in seasonal temperatures:

1) Never run a generator indoors or in a poorly ventilated area, such as a garage or porch, and use the appropriate-size power cords to carry the electric load.

2) Install one battery-operated CO alarm (or AC-powered carbon monoxide alarm with battery backup) on every level of the home and one in each sleeping area.

3) Ensure that CO alarms have working batteries installed.

4) Never burn charcoal or other outdoor cooking appliances indoors or in the garage.

5) Inspect and clean any soot and debris, such as bird nests and paper, out of the chimneys, flues and stacks.

Spring will be here soon, make sure you and your loved ones are around to welcome it!
