Proper smoke alarm placement saves lives. Check your home today
• Bedrooms: Install smoke alarms inside each bedroom.
• Hallway outside of sleeping areas: Install one in hallways outside sleeping areas.
• Every level: Ensure that alarms are installed on every level, including the basement.
For maximum protection, install interconnected alarms in your home (hardwired or wireless) so that when one sounds, they all sound, giving people more time to escape. Always follow the manufacturer’s directions for proper installation, testing and maintenance.
