Fall back is a great time of year. It gets dark sooner, cooler weather has set in and everyone is looking forward to the holiday season. Since we have to go around the house changing clocks anyway, the International Association of Fire Chiefs promotes it’s “Change your clock, change your battery” campaign. You can find more information here.

Everyone wants to feel safe – we install security systems, cameras and other gadgets to try and protect our families and property. All the gadgets in the world, however, need maintenance! So if you haven’t done it already, go around and change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. It really could be a matter of life or death.
