When to Call 911

Prioritizing caution over hesitation is essential, and we are fully prepared to respond to any medical or fire-related incidents, regardless of the time of day.

Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms are your first line of defense against a fire during the night. To ensure the safety of your home and loved ones, it is crucial to educate yourself about the various types of alarms available, their recommended replacement schedules, and the optimal locations for installation within your house. Keep in mind the importance of replacing alarm batteries yearly and the alarm units every 10 years to maintain their effectiveness in alerting you to potential dangers.

Carbon Monoxide

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a stealthy threat as it is both odorless and colorless, posing a significant risk of serious illness or even death without any prior warning. To safeguard against CO poisoning, it is essential to gain knowledge about CO, recognize the signs of poisoning, and pinpoint the household items that could trigger a CO leak. A crucial safety measure is to never run generators indoors in confined areas and to be cautious when utilizing gas-powered devices in poorly ventilated spaces.
