Daylight saving time began this morning, Sunday, March 9. Once you’ve set your clocks forward one hour, remember to check your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.

Test your alarms monthly.

If any alarms use regular batteries, the batteries should be changed twice per year (when you reset your clocks!).

Replace your alarms at least every 10 years, or according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
