The Turner family can be assured that history will never repeat, thanks to a partnership between Silent Knight, a leading provider of fire alarm solutions, and Home Control Systems of Bayville, NJ.
Since the family's displacement, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition received approximately 10,000 nominations suggesting the Turner family as ideal candidates for the show.
Now the family's prayers have been answered with a new three-floor home featuring many exciting amenities, including a sophisticated Silent Knight fire alarm system.
