“Almost every week in the news there is a tragic story about a
family losing everything. When I learned that most building fire
fatalities happen while people are asleep (and helpless), I
contacted the Smoke Alarm Company immediately and had an alarm
installed. My family is the most precious thing to me. I sleep a
lot better at night now, knowing that if anything were to happen,
we’d be woken straight away. "
