Most fires occur at night when people are sleeping. A smoke detector can alert you when there is a fire, in time to save your life. Below are some tips to ensure your smoke detector is properly installed and working correctly:
• Make sure you are testing your detector correctly.
• When a smoke detector sounds, get outside and call 911. Stay outside!
• Install smoke detectors within 15 feet of any sleeping room and every level of your house
• Replace your smoke detector every 10 years. Write the install date on the unit.
• Don’t forget to install Carbon Monoxide detectors on every floor as well.
• Any questions on smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors, call the Chicago Fire Department Public Education Division at (312) 747-6691.
