When you changed your clock over the weekend, you also checked your smoke alarms. Good job!
Having a working smoke alarm is just one important part of an overall plan to survive if your home catches fire. Another important part – a home fire escape plan.
Does your family have a home escape plan in case of fire? If not, you should.
