Working Smoke Alarms Will Save Lives!

Installing a smoke alarm in hallways, living areas, and importantly, each bedroom (sleeping area) of your home has proven to save lives in the event of a fire emergency. 

So if you have a smoke alarm sitting in a box waiting to be installed - this is not going to save you or your loved ones lives!  Install it now!

Installation of a smoke alarm is quick and easy - follow the manufacturer's instructions.  As smoke rises mounting the smoke alarm in the middle of the ceiling of a room is recommended.
