​Change Your Clocks, Change your Battery

As most Americans set their clocks back one hour, the Life Safety Park wants homeowners to “change your clocks and change your batteries” on Sunday, November 4. According to the National Fire Protection Agency, 71% of smoke alarms which failed to operate during a fire had missing, disconnected or dead batteries. Changing smoke alarm batteries at least once a year, testing those alarms monthly, and reminding others to do the same are some of the simplest, most effective ways to reduce these tragic deaths and injuries. In addition, the extra hour is a good opportunity to plan and practice exit plans. Every member of each household should know the agreed upon meeting spot once the exit plan is executed and encourage fellow neighbors and community members to do the same. Families should also prepare a fire safety kit that includes working flashlights and fresh batteries. Read more about smoke alarms and home fire safety here.
