It's time to turn your clocks back one hour. Did you notice that extra hour of sleep? It will be so nice to have a little more light in the early morning.
When we move our clocks, its a good opportunity to change our smoke detector batteries. If you have a carbon monoxide detector in your home, take this opportunity to change that battery as well.
This is also a good time to think about the placement of smoke detectors in your home. According to the National Fire Protection Association, smoke detectors should be placed in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of the home.
When you change your clocks, change your batteries. Then take some time to think about the layout of your home and how smoke detectors can best protect your family.
