It’s time to spring forward!  Don’t forget to move your clocks one hour forward on March 13th and after you do that, change the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.  Working alarms are one of the most important elements of home fire safety.  If your alarms have non-replaceable batteries and they are getting close to being 10 years old, it’s time to replace them.
