If you hear beeping this weekend, it could just be from everyone testing their smoke alarms! Remember to test them out and change the batteries if needed. The batteries should be changed at least once a year to ensure the detectors will work properly. If you didn't do it this past fall, do it now! Smoke detectors are generally good for 7-10 years and carbon monoxide detectors for 5-7 years. If your detectors have reached the end of life, change them now!
