National Fire Prevention Week runs October 4-10th, 2020 and one of the best ways to celebrate is to check all your properties’ smoke alarms for functionality and age. If you have one that’s over than 10 years old, that means it’s time to replace it! And when you do, National REIA recommends both ionization and photoelectric technologies be used in all your properties. You should also have a working & tested carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher in each unit as well. In this case, an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure…as well as saving lives! As always, stay safe and Happy Friday!!
