Smoke Detector Batteries
Time Change? Smoke Detector Battery Change!
The Fall time change is a great time to check or change your smoke detector batteries!
Call 616-878-9174 if you need help changing smoke detector batteries. Our Byron Center Fire Station #1 is out here often changing smoke detector batteries and helping people replace old alarms. They're happy to do so, and say they'd much rather come out and do it than have someone get injured in a fall.
Our association no longer lends out ladders for smoke detector work due to the liability risk.
Beware The 10th Year
Smoke Detectors should be replaced every ten years. Newer models will chirp and shout at you when they need replaced. Best to be proactive and replace them before they do that--or worse yet, fail to do their job! Calling 616-878-9174 will also get you help choosing and installing a replacement.
