Staggering statistics and the innate desires of two organizations to keep families safe are powering one of the largest fire safety programs in the U.S. Home fires take the lives of more than 2,500 people each year in the United States alone.*平均每天有七人在家庭大火中丧生。*
这个秋天，能量器国际消防局长协会（IAFC）将与27Th一年来帮助降低这一损失，向公众教育消防安全，并鼓励人们通过挽救生命的习惯更改时钟更换电池®程序。
没有烟雾报警器不再是美国的主要问题，IAFC和能量器笔记。在房屋中安装烟雾探测器的安装已飙升，从1975年的10％到2000年的95％。*
现在问题是使这些烟雾报警器正常工作。现在，没有烟雾警报器的家庭人数超过那些没有烟雾报警器的家庭。*According to the National Fire Protection Association, three out of five fatal fire injuries take place in homes without working smoke alarms. And 71 percent of smoke alarms that failed to operate had missing, disconnected or dead batteries.
27年，更改时钟更换电池®当您更改时钟以节省日光时，计划已致力于分享重要的提醒，以替换烟雾和一氧化碳探测器中的电池。
“Too many people fail to keep their smoke alarms functional,” said Fire Chief G. Keith Bryant, President and Chairman of the Board of the IAFC. “This is a needless risk with a simple fix: help protect yourself and your family by ensuring that you have working smoke detectors in your home. Many fire departments across the country have ongoing smoke alarm programs and can provide assistance. There is absolutely no reason why every home should not be protected by working smoke alarms.”
有效的烟雾报警器可以在您是否拥有这些关键的额外秒数以安全地逃脱的情况下有所作为。能量器research revealed that more than 70 percent of individuals think their family would have enough time to evacuate in the event of a fire, and 30 percent say they or their family can detect a fire. But, the reality is very different. Home fires don’t give families much time to escape and are not always easy to detect. In fact, while only 20 percent of reported home fires occurred between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., overnight fires caused half of all home fire deaths.*更多的over, 36 percent of fatal fire victims don’t wake up before being injured.*
“在能量器，我们认为，通过加强与我们的社区的关系，消防安全教育和积极预防的关系可以减少火灾造成的悲剧。”该公司北美营销副总裁布拉德·哈里森（Brad Harrison）说。“我们还感到有着深厚的联系和责任感，以帮助确保家庭的安全。我们与IAFC的27年合作伙伴关系触及了全国家庭的生活，我们致力于更改时钟更换电池outreach.”
为了帮助更多的家庭，这些关键的几秒钟，能量器今年秋天，正在向全国各地的消防部门捐赠了四分之一的电池，向其社区中的家庭分发。他们将共同在整个10月，全国防火月的20个市场举办消防安全宣传活动，直到2014年11月2日（星期日）的日光节省时间结束。能量器Bunny® will be making public appearances at these fun-filled family events.**
Elliot Kaye, Chairman of The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, echoes the IAFC and能量器“消防安全信息说：“每年，成千上万的美国人因没有烟雾报警或没有工作烟雾报警的房屋中的大火受伤。我们支持防止火灾悲剧的所有努力。今晚通过确保每层和每间卧室都有工作警报来保护您的家人。”
