• Smoke detectors — To be most effective, a smoke detector should be placed on each floor of a home, with one near bedrooms to alert occupants while they sleep. Be sure to replace the batteries regularly.
• Fire extinguishers — Visit www.fireextinguisher.com for information on how to use, inspect and maintain fire extinguishers in your home or business.
• Homeowner’s insurance — Your home is most likely your largest investment. Homeowner’s insurance protects your investment, and also covers liability for injuries and damage that may be caused to others.
• Carbon monoxide detectors — Detectors provide early warning of a buildup of this potentially deadly, odorless, colorless, tasteless gas.
• Radon test kits — Discounted test kits can be purchased from the National Safety Council at www.nsc.org or by calling 1-800-SOS-RADON.
• Home security system — Homes without a home security system are three times more likely to be burglarized. Even the appearance of having a system can reduce the risks of being robbed.
