This Week is Fire Prevention Week; Be Sure You Have a Working Smoke Detector

The week of October 4-10 being designated as Fire Prevention Week (and in fact this has been expanded out, with the entire month of October being called Fire Prevention Month. This is the time of year when fire departments remind us to put fresh batteries in our smoke detectors. It is particularly important for the deaf and hard of hearing to have an operational smoke detector that can effectively alert them in case of a fire. Carbon monoxide detectors are also an important safety device.

Don't have a detector? HearMore has a variety of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors available, including many models designed specifically for the deaf and hearing. Among the selection are the Kidde Combo Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarm with Strobe Light for a bright visual alert and the Silent Call Signature Series Smoke Detector with Transmitter that sends a signal to a vibrating receiver worn by the user or a vibrator placed under the pillow or mattress.
