⏰️✅️ Madison Fire & Rescue would like to remind everyone that Daylight Saving Time begins Sunday, March 8th at 2 AM. Set your clocks forward 1 hour. 🕒

✅️ 🪫This is always a good time to test and check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. If they have replaceable batteries, change them out for new. (Many newer detectors have 10 year sealed, non replaceable batteries).

✅️ 📢🔊 Push the test button on your detectors, make sure they sound.

✅️ 🗓 Check the date code on the back. The National Fire Protection Association recommends that smoke alarms be replaced every 10 years, carbon monoxide detectors every 5 to 7 years or according to manufacturer's recommendations.

🚒 🔥 Smoke alarms and Carbon Monoxide detectors that are properly installed and maintained play a vital role in reducing fire deaths and injuries. Fire spreads fast! Working alarms give you early warning so you can get outside quickly.

✅️ Stay Safe!

Proper disposal of fireplace & woodstove ash.
The biggest mistake firefighters witness when it comes to fire ashes is finding them thrown out in the home trash cans. Or thrown out on the ground. Never put your fireplace or wood stove ashes in a flammable container! This includes home and roadside trash cans. No matter how long the fire has been out, there could still be flammable ember present in the ashes.

A good rule of thumb for anyone with a fireplace or wood burning stove is to purchase a metal pail and garbage can. You can easily move the ashes to the pail when cleaning out your wood stove or fireplace and then move them to the metal garbage can. Although it should go without saying, do not put anything else in this trash can other than the ashes. Whenever you add new ashes to the can, it is a good idea to spray it down with water, and to leave the lid off when it is snowing or raining outside.

Do not keep the metal trash can near your home – at least 10 feet away. Also remember to keep the trash can away from anything else that could be considered or flammable (if in doubt do not put it near that spot). Once a lot of time has passed, it is now safe to bag up the ashes and leave them at your curb for pickup, or you could recycle them for use in your garden or for compost.
