Default Smoke/CO detectors
Well, you learn something new every day! A firefighter was just on our local news reminding people that carbon monoxide detectors are only designed to last about 5 years, so any approaching that age should be replaced.

I DID NOT KNOW THAT! I'm sure mine is that old! He also mentioned that smoke detectors "live" about ten years. Didn't know that either. I thought that if they were "working", they were fine. *getting out shopping list*
