Install Smoke Detectors!
Check smoke detectors once a month and change the batteries at least once a year.
Smoke detectors sense abnormal amounts of smoke or invisible combustion gases in the air. They can detect both smoldering and burning fires.
At least one smoke detector should be installed on every level of a structure.
Purchase smoke detectors labeled by the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) or Factory Mutual (FM).
