Description
Make sure your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are working and installed properly.
A
Whether
you
own
a
home
or
rent,
there
are
some
things
you
should
do
right
now
to
help
make
sure
you're
safe.
How
long
has
it
been
since
you've
tested
your
smoke
detector?
Does
it
need
a
new
battery?
The
same
goes
for
carbon
monoxide
detectors.
Not
only
is
it
smart
to
make
sure
you
have
CO
detectors
in
your
home,
it's
the
law,
here's
what
you
need
to
know.
A
You
might
not
think
carbon
monoxide
is
a
big
threat,
since
you
can't
see
it,
but
CO
poisoning
is
blamed
for
about
2,000
deaths
every
year
in
the
u.s.
so
make
sure
you
have
a
CO
detector
within
10
feet
of
every
sleeping
area
and
at
least
one
on
every
level
of
your
home.
That's
the
law.
Co
can
become
trapped
in
your
home
when
your
furnace
malfunctions
so
get
your
furnace
checked
every
year.
