I can’t believe it’s already November, before you know it Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New Year will be here. I know all of you changed your clocks for Daylight Saving Time this past weekend and it’s recommend that when you change your clocks you also change the batteries in the smoke detectors in your home.
Thirty-eight percent of fatal fire injuries occur in homes with no smoke alarms, while 24 percent occur in homes in which at least one smoke alarm is present but fails to operate, frequently due to dead or missing batteries.
For 25 years, the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program has been dedicated to helping share the life-saving reminder to change the batteries in your home’s smoke and carbon monoxide detectors when you change your clocks for daylight savings. This year, Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) will mark the silver anniversary of one of the nation’s top home fire safety programs by turning back the clocks of time to celebrate the many life-saving fire safety and preparedness innovations that are now available. For more information on the Change Your Clock Change Your Battery program visit Energizer.com or visit their Facebook page.
