"Approximately one-third of Georgia's fire fatalities last year
involved homes that didn't have smoke alarms, or where the alarms
didn't function," Oxendine said. "If you have a smoke alarm,
make sure it's in working order. Changing the battery every year
and cleaning dust from the device is an easy way to ensure continued protection
of your family and your property. Remember, having a working smoke alarm
doubles your chances of surviving a home fire."
The Commissioner added that
families should plan and rehearse an escape route and a meeting place
outside the home that they can use in the event of a fire.
