Approximately around 3:30 a.m. on Saturday, February 8, a fire broke loose in a South Los Angeles home. Victim, Anna Brooks, 98, was taken to the hospital but shortly passes away due to extreme smoke inhalation. It was said that the floor furnace was to blame for the blaze and a non-functioning smoke alarm could have warned the tenant of the blaze that was about to takeoff.
According to fire officials, including this incident, this would be the eight fatal fire this years that could have been pprevented if the home had working smoke alarms. With the numbers of casualties last year being at 21, the firefighters are very concerned that the number is so high so early this year.
This has prompted firefighters to pass out free smoke alarms in Brooks’ neighborhood as well as surrounding areas to encourage residents to install and check their smoke alarms.

Avoid this from happening by following two simple steps:
1. Change the battery to your smoke alarm monthly. If you do not have one, have one installed.
2. Have a professional HVAC contractor diagnose your furnace.
