Smoke Alarms
10/26/2020 (Permalink)
Since fire spreads fast once it is started, SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County wants to remind you that smoke detectors (smoke alarms) can help save lives in your Aston home. An alarm alerts you that danger may be present giving you time to get out.
SERVPRO of Southern Delaware County wants you to remember:
- Large homes might need extra smoke alarms
- Install smoke alarms on every level of the home
- Closed doors help to prevent the spread of fire
- Some companies make alarms that are interconnected. When one sounds, they all sound
- Test the smoke alarms at least once a month. There is a test button on the alarm
- Replace all smoke alarms every 10 years
- Do not turn off smoke detectors when cooking
- When the alarm sounds, get everyone outside and stay outside
If your home is not properly protected by a smoke detector, please install one. If you experience a fire, immediately vacate the home and then contact your fire department once you are outside the home.
If you experience fire damage, call (484) 841-6669.
