Home Fire Safety: Test Your Smoke Alarms Today

Working smoke alarms save lives. The Bumpass Volunteer Fire Department encourages every household to take a few minutes to protect your family: • Test every smoke alarm monthly by pressing the test button. • Replace batteries at least once a year — an easy reminder is to change them when the clocks change. • Replace smoke alarms every 10 years. • Make sure alarms are installed on every level of your home and inside each bedroom. • Create and practice a home escape plan so everyone knows two ways out and where to meet outside. A little preparation makes a big difference. Stay safe, Bumpass.
