Take Fire Prevention Steps Now! Have you felt that chill in the air? Many of us are turning on our heating systems for the first time this season, so now is the perfect time to make sure you are doing everything possible to prevent a fire in your home. This year's fire prevention slogan is "Change Your Clocks, Change Your Batteries." As you remember to turn your clocks back one hour on November 4th, remember to change the batteries in your smoke detector.
If you live on the Isle of Palms, the Isle of Palms Fire Department will test your smoke detector and change the battery if needed. Contact them at IOPFD601@aol.com to schedule your appointment or if you have questions about fire safety. Also, have your chimney inspected before you use it. Check that your electrical system is in good working order. Clear debris from around your home. Ensure that you can open your doors and windows in case you need to evacuate, and make sure you have an evacuation plan. Click here for more information about the Isle of Palms Fire Deparment. |
