Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend. Everyone should set their clocks back one hour before going to bed Saturday night.

The time change is also the prefered time to check batteries in smoke detectors and carbon monoxide dectors to make sure they are charged and the units are functioning properly.

The time change in fall and spring is recommended for checking smoke and carbon monoxide dectors and battiers as batteries can drain during the six month time period. The detectors should also be replaced as recommended by the manufactor or when they fail during testing during the time changes.
