Smoke alarms 

Seconds count in a fire. Give your family the best head start and make sure you have smoke alarms installed as required by law - smoke alarms must be installed on every level of your home and outside of all sleeping areas. For added protection, install smoke alarms inside every bedroom. 

Is your smoke or CO alarm celebrating its 10th year in your home? It's time to replace it! 

Check the back of your alarms for the manufacture date. Many alarms expire after 10 years, but some may expire before that so check with the manufacturer if you aren't sure when the alarm expires. Replace any alarms that have expired. 

Once you've checked the date, test the alarm. All alarms in your home should be tested monthly by pressing the test button.

For more information on smoke alarms, visit Ontario Association of Fire Chiefs' Smoke Alarms. 

Carbon monoxide (CO) alarms 

Carbon monoxide is a colourless, odourless, tasteless and toxic gas. CO is often referred to as a "silent killer" since it cannot be detected without an alarm. CO alarms are required outside all sleeping areas if you have a fuel burning appliance in your home or an attached garage.

For more information on carbon monoxide visit the TSSA's CO Safety website. 

Safety Recalls 

The NDFS Fire Prevention Division will endeavour to make our residents immediately aware of any fire related recall information via social media. Residents can also visit the Government of Canada for the latest recall, advisories and safety alerts.
