Baby boomers and Gen X, this one’s for you, and any who remembers Cher 😁

We have our own throwback while we’re at it, but this one’s still as relevant as ever!

This weekend our clocks fall back, which also means we change our batteries (unless you have a 10 year sealed unit) in our smoke alarms AND CO detectors.

Check the date of manufacture on your unit! It’s time for smoke alarms to be replaced at 10 years, and for CO alarms around 7 years. Always check what batteries need to be purchased PRIOR, if any.

For the best protection, alarms should be placed on every level of the home and in each bedroom. CO detectors should be placed within 10 feet of the bedroom. Properly working alarms reduce the risk of death in a house fire by 50%! As always if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out by calling our office!

As we come closer to Halloween, we want to share some fire safety tips with you!
🎃If you haven’t gotten a costume yet, consider one that doesn’t trail behind or have lots of fabric involved. Many either get caught or catch fire due to being over unknown candles. Also make sure it’s something visible (like our turnout gear, if you need any ideas for a costume 😉)
🎃Speaking of candles, maybe skip those for the Jack O’ lantern and try flameless candles.
🎃 it’s going to be a chilly fall night, keep decor away from heat sources whether it’s the heater inside your home, or any fire pit!

How’s Fire Prevention going and what have we learned?!

Fire Prevention Week is observed in October in line with the Great Chicago Fire on October 8, 1871 which killed more than 250 people and left 100,000 homeless. The National Fire Prevention Association chose this week in 1922 to prevent any other similar tragedies. This year’s theme “Charge Into Fire Safety. Safe Charging Is a Superpower” is a way to focus on fire safety that is relevant.

This week and next week as we go around to our Hillsborough schools we teach many things including the sounds of smoke alarms, how to dial 9-1-1 and why, how to crawl out of smoke, and how to choose a good meeting place.

Parents and Guardians, we ask that you reinforce the things your kids learn at school by continuing the learning at home. Have you chosen a meeting place? How about practicing how to exit your home in an emergency? Have you signed up for Community Connect? If you need help with any of these things don’t hesitate to ask when you see us around town, or message us!!
