This week is National Fire Prevention Week when special emphasis is placed on fire safety all across the country. The theme is hear the beep where you sleep which brings special attention to the fact that every bedroom in your home should have a working smoke detector. This is the best way to have early warning should a fire occur in your home and should allow you time to safely escape. Smoke detectors are inexpensive and the best insurance you can buy so make sure you have them throughout your home. Remember to test them on a regular basis and when you change your clocks, change your batteries!
