SIOUX CITY FIREFIGHTERS WERE DISPATCHED TO THE 2700 BLOCK OF SOUTH PAXTON FRIDAY MORNING FOR AN ODOR AND SMOKE PROBLEM IN A HOME.
ASSISTANT CHIEF BRAD ROBINSON SAYS NO FIRE OR SMOKE WAS FOUND, BUT THEY DID HELP THE HOME OWNER OUT WITH A QUICK INSPECTION TO TAKE CARE OF THE SMOKE DETECTOR THAT MAY HAVE MALFUNCTIONED:
OC……..A BAD DETECTOR. :05
IT’S RECOMMENDED THAT YOU REPLACE YOUR SMOKE DETECTORS EVERY TEN YEARS AND CHANGE THE BATTERIES TWICE A YEAR TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.
