Smoke Detectors: Change Your Clocks Change Your Batteries
Smoke detectors save lives. Almost two thirds of home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.
When there is a fire, smoke spreads fast and you need smoke alarms to give you time to get out.
If you need assistance replacing the battery
in your smoke detector please call the Fire Marshal's Office at 215-949-9000 ext. 255 and they will dispatch someone to help you. You MUST supply the battery
For more smoke alarm information please use the following link:
