🔥 FIRE SAFETY BULLETIN 🧯

From the Continental Village Fire Department 

Prepare Your Home Before the Heating Season 

As cooler weather approaches, the Continental Village Fire Department reminds all residents to take a few minutes to check their smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors before turning on heating equipment for the season.

Please take the following steps:

• Test every smoke and CO detector in your home to make sure it is operating properly.

• Replace batteries if needed, or replace the detector if it is past its recommended service life.

• Make sure detectors are installed on every level of your home and near sleeping areas.

• Never disable or remove a detector because of nuisance alarms.

• Keep heating equipment and vents clear of furniture, clothing, boxes, and other combustible materials.

• Have your furnace, boiler, fireplace, wood stove, or other heating equipment inspected and serviced as recommended by the manufacturer.

• Remember that carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless. A working CO detector can provide an early warning of this potentially dangerous gas.

A few minutes today can make a difference tomorrow.

The Continental Village Fire Department encourages every household to make fire and CO detector checks part of its seasonal home-safety routine.

Stay safe, stay prepared, and help protect your family this heating season.
