As you settle into your new home, we’d like to share an important safety reminder. Before spending your first night in the home, please be sure all smoke detector covers have been removed.


These protective covers are installed during construction to prevent dust and debris from entering the devices. However, they must be removed for the smoke detectors to function properly.


Once the covers are off, the smoke detectors will actively monitor for smoke and alert you if an issue arises. Please remember to check all smoke detectors throughout the home, including those located in the basement.


Taking this simple step helps ensure your home is safe and protected from day one.
