Check the fuse box and you may see smoke detectors shown on one of the circuits.

Home in Duval has a standard installation
I believe that ALL smoke detectors have batteries. If a fire starts and causes the electricity to go out in the home, you better hope the smoke detectors are battery powered.

As one poster said, call the Fire Department.
