This week the Payson Fire Department is broadcasting the 2015 National Fire Prevention Week theme:

“Hear the Beep, Where you Sleep”.

Many of the fires fought by Payson firefighters can be prevented or minimized with simple steps such as installing fire sprinklers in your home and making sure your smoke detectors and fire alarm systems are operating properly.

Help keep your family safe by making sure you have a working smoke alarm in every bedroom or one that can be heard in every bedroom. This week is a great time to inspect your smoke detectors, switch out the batteries if you haven't done so in the last year, and look at the date of manufacture on the back of your detectors. If your smoke detectors are over 10 years old, it is time to replace your detectors.

If you don't have a working smoke detector that can be heard in your bedroom, please contact the Payson Fire Department at (928) 474-5242 ext. 5120. We are happy to provide you with a detector and professional installation to ensure you can "Hear the beep where you sleep."
