Sunday, October 9th kicks off Fire Prevention week across the United States.  Our annual Open House is scheduled for Wednesday, October 12, 2016 from 6PM-8PM.  

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT SMOKE ALARMS:

  • Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years.
  • Make sure you know how old all the smoke alarms are in your home.
  • To find out how old a smoke alarm is, look at the date of manufacture on the back of the alarm; the alarm should be replaced 10 years from that date.
