Be A Battery Changer

No CO or smoke alarm, no matter how advanced the technology, can work if the batteries are dead, so remembering to change the batteries in your alarms is a very important safety procedure in your home.

Batteries need to be replaced once every year. A good habit to establish is to change the batteries every fall when you change your clocks.

How Old is Too Old?

Like most things, CO and smoke alarms wear out with age. They have to be replaced in order to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety for your family.

Please check the manufacturer’s instructions for information on when your particular carbon monoxide alarm or smoke alarm should be replaced.
