Fire Prevention Week runs October 6 – 12th this year! This annual week of observance aims to educate the public about various fire safety issues.
This year’s Fire Prevention Week theme is
“Smoke Alarms: Make them Work for you!”.
The three key calls to action with this theme are:
1.Install : Make sure every bedroom, hallway and level (including the basement) have a smoke alarm
2. Test : Each month, push the test button to make sure the smoke alarm is in working order
3.Replace : Smokes alarms should be replaced every 10 years, or when they stop responding when tested
And don’t miss out on the Cincinnati Fire Department‘s Fire Prevention Week event, taking place at the Cincinnati Fire Museum on Saturday, October 12th from noon – 2 p.m.
