Smoke Alarm Maintenance Campaign
Check batteries once a week. Remember - push the button,
not your luck!
Starting on 1st September, the Smoke Alarm Maintenance
Campaign will remind people - through TV, radio and
press advertising - of the need to check their smoke
alarms regularly.
Fitting a smoke alarm is the simplest step you can take
to reduce the risk of fire. Around 80% of homes now
have a smoke alarm, but there's no point in having one
if it doesn't work. In 2002, fire-fighters in England
& Wales attended over 5,000 accidental house fires
where alarms were fitted but failed to work.
A few simple steps can save lives:
Get into the routine of checking the battery once a
week.
Replace the battery every twelve months, unless it is
a ten year alarm.
Replace the whole smoke alarm every ten years.
