Spring Forward and Check Your Smoke Alarms!
That time of year is fast approaching… and it’s time to spring forward! And with that, the yearly routine to-do list includes checking your smoke alarms. Doctor Screen is introducing our Smoke Detector Inspection & Replacement Service.
Smoke detectors are the first defence against the detrimental results of a fire. There should be one installed on every floor of your home on ceilings or high up on a wall. Place them away from windows or other sources of ventilation to ensure that they work as efficiently as possible.
How to keep your house safe from a fire
Ultimate safety is important, so try and make sure that you’re using interconnected smoke alarms. This way, once one sounds on, they all sound on. If you don’t choose to do this, then you should at least have them installed in each bedroom, outside each bedroom and on every level of the home including the basement.
Other Safety Tips
Several other safety tips include:
- Clean each unit by vacuuming or dusting
- Install new batteries on the smoke alarms once per year
- Refrain from painting a smoke alarm
- Notify local fire department when your detector sounds
