With that being said ALARMS SAVE LIVES! Coincidently enough this alarm save comes just 3 days before the NFPA National Fire Prevention week, which runs October 7, 2018 – October 13, 2018. Please make sure you are checking your batteries in BOTH smoke detectors AND your CO alarms!!! If you have any questions please either reach out to me on here or feel free to stop by our firehouse on any Tuesday night starting at 7pm.
And again, always remember ALARMS SAVE LIVES!!!
