Time to Change Batteries

Time to Change Batteries

Daylight Saving Time ends on Sunday, November 5, at 2 a.m. Remember to set your clocks back, but it’s also a great reminder to change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. Also, check the dates on your smoke alarms and replace them when they are ten years old. They still make noise, but the sensor may not detect smoke. Smoke alarms save lives, but only if they work! Make sure you and your family are protected.
