Don't Wait for Disaster: Fire Prevention Week™ Focuses on Smoke Alarm Safety

At DANE Contractors, we’ve seen firsthand the devastating effects of fire on homes and businesses.

That’s why we’re proud to support Fire Prevention Week™ (FPW™) from October 6-12, 2024.

This year’s campaign, “Smoke alarms: Make them work for you!™,” is a crucial reminder of the importance of having working smoke alarms in your home.

Smoke alarms are your first line of defense in the event of a fire, providing early warning that could save your life and the lives of your loved ones. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), nearly three out of five home fire deaths occur in properties without working smoke alarms. These devices are essential, yet often overlooked, components of fire safety.

At DANE Contractors, we urge everyone to take a few simple steps to ensure their smoke alarms are functioning properly. Test your alarms at least once a month, replace the batteries annually, and install smoke alarms on every level of your home, especially inside and outside bedrooms.

In addition to smoke alarm safety, our team specializes in fire damage mitigation and restoration services. With over 30 years of experience, DANE Contractors is here to help in the event of a fire, offering emergency recovery for residential, commercial, and industrial properties.

Don’t wait for a disaster to strike—make sure your smoke alarms are working for you. Stay safe this Fire Prevention Week and beyond!
