There was a smoke detector in the house, the burned

Chef Adams says that the investigators found a smoke detector in the man's house, but they do not know whether he was in a functioning order.

Adams says

Smoke detectors demonstrably save and are the best protection, regardless of the type of structure they stay in. Therefore, it is so devastating when someone dies in a living fire without having a functioning smoke detector. We need every family in this state to invest in their security by receiving working smoke detectors for their houses today.

There is a way to get a free smoke detector, and there are programs that can help those you cannot install yourself.

The Operation Save-A-Life has received several donations from smoke registration and works with those who need help when buying one.

If you need a smoke detector or someone who will help you install it, you can visit Lasfm.org or contact your local fire brigade.
