Do I Need Smoke Detectors?
In the event of a fire, a smoke alarm can save your life and those of your loved ones. They are a very important means of preventing house and apartment fire fatalities by providing an early warning signal -- so you and your family can escape. Smoke alarms are one of the best safety devices you can buy and install to protect yourself, your family, and your home.  For information on the importance of smoke detectors visit the U.S. Fire Administration's website by clicking HERE.
