[ARCHIVED] Fire Prevention Week: October 6-12, 2024

FP Week 2024

This year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign, “Smoke alarms: Make them work for you!" strives to educate everyone about the importance of having working smoke alarms in the home.

Key smoke alarm safety tips and guidelines:

  • Install - Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area (like a hallway), and on each level (including the basement) of the home.
  • Test - Test smoke alarms at least once a month by pushing the test button.
  • Replace - Replace all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old or stop responding when tested.

Check out Fire Prevention Week 2024 for tons of great resources for your community and your family. You will find smoke alarm resources from downloadable activities, safety tip sheets and videos for all ages.
