Over a million fire related incidences occur in the U.S. every year, resulting in billions of dollars' worth of damage. While no one wants to imagine that such a terrifying and destructive experience could occur in their own life, it's always important to prepare for the possibility.

Diagnosing Smoke Detector Issues

Knowing whether your smoke detector is functioning properly is the first step. Wrongly assuming your current smoke detectors work without checking to be sure could cause you to risk everything. Periodically check your detectors to be sure they are working correctly. Most detectors have a test button built in, pressing the test button should sound the alarm and let you know that the battery and electrical wiring is functioning. Keep in mind that just because the alarm has power doesn't mean that all components are working at their best. You may want to safely test the sensitivity of the detector with a candle flame. Gently place the candle flame within a few inches of the detector to see if the alarm sounds, blow out the candle and allow the smoke to form around the device. If it doesn't work properly, get professional help right away.
