Thanks for the reminder about keeping them free and clear. Smoke detectors will scream when the see ANY particles, not just smoke. I'm kinda glad they don't know the difference. If there isn't smoke use the alarm as a notice that you gotta clean them out.

Another thing. January 1st is approaching and it will be time for me to change out all the 9v batteries in the stickhouse and rig for the CO and Fire alarms. And the old batteries go into our hazardous materials disposal box for eventual proper disposal at the County location. Such are the costs of safety. DW will be reminding me of this drill real soon.
