October is Fire Prevention month

It’s Fire Prevention Month and that means checking your Smoke Detectors and Carbon Monoxide Detectors. Replace the batteries and check the manufactured date. If your CO detector is more than 7 years old and smoke detector over 10 years then they need to be replaced. That is years from manufacture not years you lived in your new home or years since you installed it. The manufacturer date is on the back, if it 2016 (2019 for CO) or before they should be replaced. Older detectors just stop working without warning so replacement is essential to ensure proper warning of a fire or carbon Monoxide incident.
