• Get in the annual habit of checking the batteries of existing units.
• Use Combination Detectors that check for multiple dangers.
• Keep at least 2 small fire extinguishers in the house. These
should be from tested brands and should be ABC rated or "Multipurpose".
• Make sure everyone knows how and when to use it, it might be
wise to keep it along fire escape routes instead of the back closet
buried.
