A friendly reminder to change smoke alarm batteries
SUMMARY: As we “fall back” this weekend, the Aberdeen Fire Department emphasizes the importance of checking smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in homes. It’s crucial to have functioning smoke detectors in every bedroom, hallway, and sleeping area. Carbon monoxide detectors are vital for homes using natural gas, as this gas is invisible and odorless. The fire department advises unplugging appliances such as curling irons and keeping space heaters away from flammable materials. Regular maintenance of smoke detectors, including weekly checks and battery replacement, is important. For assistance with installation or checks, residents can contact the fire department.
