Be Fire Safe

With just a few steps you can have a fire safe home.

• Fire Escape Plan
  • Gather the family and plan out how everyone would exit if there was a fire.
  • Consider different situations like daytime and nighttime exit plans.
• Smoke Detectors
  • Install detectors on every level of the home, outside sleeping areas, and inside bedrooms.
  • Replace batteries - Daylight Savings (March and November) is a good time.
• Prevent Home Fires
  • Keep matches and lighters out of the reach of young children.
  • Exercise caution when using candles. Do not leave candles unattended or lit while sleeping.
  • Use an ash tray when smoking and never smoke in bed.
