As we recognize Fire Prevention Month this October, let’s take a moment to make safety a priority at home. Test your smoke detectors, look at your fire extinguishers, and take a moment to ensure your insurance coverage still fits your household. Taking these small steps helps keep you and your entire community safer and more prepared.
