Energizer and the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) are once again working with local fire departments nationwide to raise awareness on the importance of working smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors in helping to keep families safe in their homes. And in honor of the day and the motto from October 11 through November 4, you can visit the Energizer Bunny® Facebook page and click on the Fire Safety Info Tab. Here you will have the chance to enter a sweepstakes to win a Family Safety Kit. Energizer will be giving away one Family Safety Kit per day for 25 days.
Contained in the kit, valued at more than $150 is:
- One reusable grocery tote
- Two Kidde Battery-Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarms
- One package of Energizer Advanced Lithium batteries
- One package of Energizer® MAX® Batteries with Power Seal Technology
- Two Energizer flashlights
- Two Energizer Flameless Wax Candles
- One Energizer Bunny Plush Bunny
In addition you can find fire safety tips, a home escape plan that you can download and draw your family’s home escape plan, as well as a coloring and activity sheet.
With daylight savings soon upon us what better time to ask for everyone to adopt a life-saving habit, changing the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. So again I urge you. When you change your clocks, don't forget to change your batteries in ALL the smoke detectors in your home, including those carbon Monoxide detectors. This is an important step in keeping yourself and family safe and is worth a few minutes of your time.
Did you know that Thirty-eight percent of fatal fire injuries occur in homes without working smoke alarms, while 24 percent occur in homes in which at least one smoke alarm is present but fails to operate.*
Don't forget that motto - Change Your Clock Change Your Battery.
To help get you off on the right foot, Energizer is offering one lucky reader a additional Family Safety Kit this time including:
- Two packages of Energizer® MAX® Batteries with Power Seal Technology – Dependable, powerful performance for the devices that help keep your family safe; now hold their charge when stored for up to 10 years
- One Energizer® Flameless Wax Candle – Enjoy the realistic flicker of a scented wax candle without the worry of open flame or hassle of soot and dripping wax

- One Kidde Battery-Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Alarm

Our fire safety plans include having a fire extinguisher in each bedroom so that if fires happen while you are sleeping you have a way to clear a path to get out.

Always use smoke detectors and keep a fire extinguisher on hand just in case!

Go over plans in case of emergency with your kids every few months
We have a family meeting place in case we have to evacuate.
When the grandkids sleep over we discuss what to do in case of fire or need to evacuate - since this is not their regular routine it helps to remind them of the plan.
We have fire and carbon monoxide detectors and a preset meeting place, not only for fires, but in case of a disaster too.
We have more than the required number of smoke detectors and have rules about never leaving the house with incandescent bulbs on or the dryer running.
We have a designated meeting place away from our house, in the event we were to have a fire. We have smoke alarms, and an escape plan. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...
We have an escape plan, but that's about it!
