SAFETY IN THE HOME
Safety Tip
I have one smoke detector in my home.
Is that enough protection against fire?
No, several smoke detectors must be installed and maintained for proper fire protection. Smoke detectors must be installed on every living level of the home, inside every bedroom, and in the main corridor outside each bedroom.
NFPA's National Fire Alarm Code (NFPA 72) says homes must have smoke detectors on every level of the home -- including the basement -- and outside each sleeping area. New homes are required to have a smoke detector in each sleeping area as well.
Installing and maintaining smoke detectors dramatically increase your family’s chances of surviving a fire. It's a fact - having a smoke alarm in the house cuts your risk of dying in a fire by 50%.
