Change Your Clock Change Your Battery
Each year, thousands of people needlessly die or are injured in home fires. Tragically, many of them would be alive or unharmed today had their home been equipped with working smoke detectors.
The Duluth Fire Department, along with Energizer Batteries, is offering free batteries to the public. Please use the extra hour you gain with daylight savings time to change your smoke and carbon monoxide alarm batteries and save a life.
Batteries, limit two, will be available while supplies last at:
