Intrusion:
Remember to lock all doors and windows when you leave the home.
Keep all valuable items out of sight.
Install proper lighting around your home to keep it well lit at
night.
Introduce yourself to your neighbors and get to know them. Also,
take the initiative to start a Neighborhood Watch group.
When you are out of town, do not lure burglars with stacks of newspapers
and an overflowing mailbox. Either have a trusted neighbor pick
them up daily or have the post office and news carrier hold them
for you.
Set timers for lights and a television so it appears that someone
is home while you are traveling.
Do not hide spare keys in obvious places such as: under doormats,
in the mailbox, etc.
Install a peephole in your front door to make it possible to see
who is there without having to open it.
Monitored alarm systems are effective at deterring burglars.
Do not give out your alarm code to just anyone. Only a family member
or trusted friend should know the code in case of an emergency.
Fire:
Smoke detectors that are monitored by the Central Monitoring Station
are effective. Whether you are home or away, FirstAlert Company
will always be looking out for you.
Check the batteries and test your smoke alarm monthly.
Have a planned escape route for your home with a safe meeting place.
Make sure that each room has an alternative escape route in case
the first is inaccessible.
Hold practice drills regularly so the entire family is familiar
with the procedure for safely exiting the house.
Do not overload electrical sockets. Unplug items when they are not
in use.
Furnaces and heating systems should be cleaned on an annual basis.
Install a spark arrestor on your chimney to prevent sparks from
starting a fire on your roof, nearby trees, etc. Also, cut back
trees so they do not hang directly over the chimney.
In case of an actual fire situation, it is imperative that your
address is easily seen by emergency vehicles.
