This is the first day of Fire Prevention Week. This is a time to make sure you not only have an escape plan in case of a fire in your home but actually practice that plan. You should have 2 ways to get out of every room and don’t forget to have a rendezvous point outside. You should also make sure your smoke detectors are working by checking them once a month and chance the batteries in them twice a year.
