San Andreas – Daylight savings time ends,
Sunday, November 4, 2012. This is a great time to change the batteries
in your smoke detectors. Almost every day a smoke detector saves
somebody’s life, but only when the smoke detectors are maintained and working properly.
To keep your smoke detector in proper working order:
· Test all smoke detectors on a monthly basis
· Change the batteries twice a year
· Vacuum once a year: dust and cobwebs can impair sensitivity
Install smoke detectors in:
· Hallways that lead to all sleeping areas
· Basements
· Each additional level of your home
The life you save may be your own or that of a loved one.
