SMOKE ALARMS

Each family in the New York Mills Fire District
with a newborn gets a smoke detector free of charge.
Contact the firehouse for more information.

Every home should have a smoke alarm on every level, and outside of sleeping areas.

You can prevent tragedies simply by testing and maintaining your smoke alarms!  All smoke alarms in your house should be tested once a month, and their batteries replaced annually.

Every year in the United States, about 3,000 people lose their lives in residential fires, usually caused from inhalation of smoke and gasses.  Most deaths and injuries occur in fires that happen at night, when the victims are asleep.

Smoke alarms save lives, prevent injuries, and minimize damage, because of early warning.
