Escambia Fire Rescue Installs New Smoke Detectors In Free Program
November 5, 2017
The American Red Cross joined the Century Station of Escambia Fire Rescue in installing about 40 new smoke detectors Saturday in Century.
Escambia Fire Rescue is offering to install a new smoke detector with a 10-year battery at no charge for local residents.
Smoke alarms that are properly installed and maintained play a vital role in reducing fire deaths and injuries. According to the National Fire Protection Association, a working smoke alarm cuts the chances of dying in a reported fire in half. Almost two-thirds of home fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.
For information about obtaining a home smoke detector, call 850-595-HERO (4376).
