Do services inherit downtime from their hosts?

Here's what we observed.  Host was put into two hour flexible downtime
at 7:03 am:

[06-08-2009 07:03:37] EXTERNAL COMMAND:
SCHEDULE_AND_PROPAGATE_HOST_DOWNTIME;host1;1244462581;1244469781;0;0;3600;James
Smith;patches

Ten minutes later a notification for one of the services on this host is sent:

[06-08-2009 07:13:44] SERVICE NOTIFICATION:
hostingam;host1;http://host1.company.net;CRITICAL;notify-service-by-pager;Connection
refused

How do we avoid service notifications for hosts that are in downtime?
