[RP TownTalk] Check Your Smoke Detectors and CO Detectors

[Stephen C. Lamphier]

To the residents:

Five residents of Oxon Hill will killed by carbon monoxide last April due to a faulty heating system in their home.  This is needless.

When you set your clocks back to Eastern standard time tonight, this is also a good time to check your smoke detectors and your carbon monoxide detectors.  Press the test button on the device.  If no sound is emitted, change the battery and press the test button again.  If there is again no sound, replace the device.

Don't forget to talk to your family about two ways out from every room, in case of fire, and have a designated outside meeting area.

If you have questions about smoke detectors or carbon monoxide detectors, contact the fire station or the Prince George's County Fire/EMS Department at 301-886-SAFE (7233).
