Replace and upgrade your smoke alarms every ten years.

Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms must be replaced within the specified lifetime of the product, usually 5 to 10 years after the date of manufacture. Check the back of your alarm for the date of manufacturing or contact us if you need assistance. Aging smoke alarms do not operate efficiently and often are the source for nuisance alarms.

Replace and upgrade your carbon monoxide alarms every ten years.

Carbon monoxide (CO) alarms monitor your home 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and are designed to provide accurate readings for the life of the alarm. But they don't last forever. Some models are equipped with an end of life signal, which will alert you when it is time to replace the alarm. Knowing how to identify these sounds and what they mean is essential to keeping your home safe.
