Smoke Detectors

If a fire starts in your home, a smoke detector will provide vital extra seconds for you and your family to escape.

Make sure that any smoke detectors in your home are in good working order by testing them each week.

Just press and hold the button at the centre of the alarm for 3 seconds. Use a broom handle if the alarm is out of reach. NEVER use a naked flame to test a detector.

If your smoke detector doesn't work correctly or the 'low battery' signal sounds then contact your local Fire Station for a free replacement or call free on: 0800 5874536.
