Change Your Smoke Alarm and Carbon Monoxide Detector Batteries It only takes a moment, but this simple habit is the best defense your family has against the devastating effects of a home fire or accidental carbon monoxide poisoning.

An easy way to remember to do so is to change the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors when you change your clocks for Daylight savings and back to Standard time.
