In the event of a fire, functioning smoke alarms are essential for saving lives. Unfortunately, statistics reveal that one in four smoke alarm failures in emergencies are due to dead batteries. Even more alarming, three out of every five fire-related deaths happen in homes without working smoke detectors.
To help prevent such tragedies, it’s crucial to check and replace the batteries in your smoke detectors regularly. Taking a few minutes to do this simple task can make a life-or-death difference in a fire emergency.
For residents who may not have functional smoke detectors, Clay County Fire Department offers a solution. If you don’t have working smoke alarms, the department will install them at no cost to you. All you need to do is provide some basic information, and a department member will come by to install them for free.
