Protect your home and loved ones with a simple habit: monthly smoke alarm checking. How frequently is enough? Experts suggest checking your smoke alarms at least once a month. The simple test ensures your alarms function and will sound if there’s smoke or fire.

Why Monthly Testing Matters
Batteries will run down unexpectedly—even on hard-wired alarms.

Dust and dirt can clog sensors so that alarms are less effective.

Assurance of mental tranquility: Regular monthly examinations ensure that you will not have to question the functionality of your smoke detectors at critical moments.

Rapid Steps to Test Your Smoke Alarm

Press and hold the test button down until the alarm sounds.

If it does not beep, attempt battery replacement and retest.

Still silent? Replace the alarm at once.
