Smoke Detector Safety and Maintenance Tips for Beckley?

1/31/2023 (Permalink)

A smoke detector alerts people to leave a smoke-filled house. We restore fire damage 24-hours a day in Raleigh County.

Our local team in Beckley witnesses firsthand the difference working smoke detectors make in a home’s escape plan. When smoke detectors are working correctly, they save lives and allow people to leave their homes quickly. Here are some smoke alarm safety tips from the National Fire Protection Association:

Smoke Alarm Safety
  • A closed door may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. Install smoke alarms in every sleeping room and outside each separate sleeping area. Install alarms on every level of the home. 
  • Smoke alarms should be interconnected. When one sounds, they all sound. 
  • Large homes may need extra smoke alarms
  • Test your smoke alarms at least once a month. Press the test button to be sure the alarm is working.
  • Today’s smoke alarms will be more technologically advanced to respond to a multitude of fire conditions yet mitigate false alarms
  • When a smoke alarm sounds, get outside and stay outside
  • Replace all smoke alarms in your home every ten years
