Key Safety Reminders:
Test Monthly: Use the test button to ensure detectors are working.
Check Dates: Smoke detectors have a 10-year lifespan; if they are older, replace the entire unit.
10-Year Units:
Some detectors have sealed 10-year batteries that do not need yearly replacement, but the unit itself should be replaced if it chirps.
Placement: Ensure detectors are installed on every floor and in every bedroom.
Check Other Devices: Use this time to also check batteries in emergency radios and flashlights.
