The Provincial fire Marshal Benoit Laroche tells us most deaths due to house fires happen at night, while people are sleeping. He says it's a good idea to place smoke alarms outside every sleeping area and on every level of the home.
If you sleep with the bedroom door closed, install a smoke alarm inside the bedroom, test your smoke alarms while the family is sleeping and make sure they are clean. Department of Public Safety: www.gnb.ca/publicsafety.
