Smoke Alarms
A smoke alarm makes a very loud beeping noise to warn you that a fire has started.

WHAT IS A SMOKE ALARM?

Smoke alarms are tools that can tell if there is smoke in the air. They work even if you can't smell smoke. A smoke alarm looks like a small dish or dinner plate on the ceiling of your home!

A smoke alarm makes a very loud beeping noise to warn you that a fire has started. When you hear the loud noise, follow your home escape plan and get out fast.
