Convenient online service improves home fire safety, protects lives
MILWAUKEE - Oct. 26, 2015 - PRLog -- Batteries For Life (www.batteriesforlife.com), committed to making a difference in the lives of others, today introduced a first-to-market subscription service for consumers to easily schedule the delivery of smoke detector batteries right to their door. The automated online service offers a convenient and affordable way to maintain home smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, devices that are critical to protecting a home and family.

“Everyone can relate to removing a smoke detector battery to stop the annoying ‘chirp’ with the intention of replacing it, but life gets busy and we simply forget,” said Jay Groth, the firm’s founder. “With three out of five home fire-related deaths due to missing or dead smoke detector batteries, our automated battery replacement service offers a simple and potentially life-saving solution. An empty smoke detector is a gamble people don’t ever need to take.”

Easy, secure, peace of mind

Batteries For Life’s service allows users to easily set up a subscription in minutes. Users create a secure online account, select the type of batteries needed, quantity and frequency of shipment, typically every six months. Subscribers also receive emails reminding them to install their batteries and test their detector every month. Designed to protect lives, “Our service provides peace of mind, making it ideal for individuals and families alike. Gifting Batteries For Life is an inexpensive and unique way of saying ‘I care’ to newlyweds, new homeowners, new parents, or just about anyone with a home — for less than what they would typically pay for batteries at the local grocery store,” said Pete Garofalo, managing partner of marketing.

Tom Syburg, the firm’s managing partner of community relations and retired firefighter paramedic with over 25 years of service at Milwaukee’s North Shore Fire Department, has seen firsthand the devastating effects of a home fire. He notes that many people underestimate the importance of installing and maintaining smoke detectors. Since many home fires happen at night, “A common misconception is assuming the smell of smoke will wake you. That thinking creates a false sense of security, as research shows that a person’s sense of smell also goes to sleep when he or she does. To safeguard against potential tragedy, installing and maintaining a smoke detector is a basic home safety must. We are trying to make it a no-brainer for everyone.”

Aligned with its mission to make a difference in the lives of others, Batteries For Life contributes a portion of the proceeds of each subscription to the Red Cross Fire Relief Fund. Groth adds, “While a subscription to our service allows you to do something good for you and your loved ones, it also does something good for fire victims, and that lets us all sleep more soundly at night.”
