4. Clean Your Smoke Alarms and Carbon Monoxide Detectors Ensure your smoke alarms' and carbon monoxide detectors' sensitivity by cleaning them each month of dust and cobwebs. 5. Replace Your Smoke Alarms The International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) recommends replacing smoke alarms every 10 years and having a combination of both ionization and photo electric smoke alarms to keep you alert to all types of home fires. 6. Change Your Flashlight Batteries Keep flashlights with fresh batteries at your bedside for help in finding the way out and signaling for help in the event of a fire. 7. Get the Whole Family Involved Once smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors are installed and have fresh batteries, you should make sure family members, children in particular, know what the alarms and detectors sound like and what to do should they go off.
