According to Little Ferry Fire Chief, Rob Cordasco, “Working smoke alarms give us early warning of a fire, providing extra time to escape safely. But they can’t do their job if we haven’t done ours - monthly testing to make sure they’re working. Test all the smoke alarms in your home, for the life of the alarm and for the lives of your loved ones.” When was the last time you tested your smoke alarms? Don’t gamble with your life and assume your smoke alarms are working. Test each one, every month, so you know they will be ready to protect you and your family if there’s a fi re.
