Do you not have a neighbor who is young/agile enough to ask to do the job for you?

Assuming you have the batteries to hand, it takes a few minutes to do the whole house and is hardly a life-threatening exercise for many in The Villages.

Leave the Fire Department to fight fires and save lives.
Some smoke detectors are very difficult to change the batteries due to their design. The FD encourages seniors to use their services.
