The fire code is changing in January and calls like this show exactly why.   At approximately 08:30 yesterday morning, the Ottawa Fire Services Communications Division received a 9-1-1 call from a resident in a two-storey townhome in the 0 to 100 block of Briggs Avenue reporting that their Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarm had activated. Firefighters arrived to find the resident waiting safely outside in fresh air. As crews approached the home, they detected a strong smell of natural gas and recorded Carbon Monoxide readings of 35 Parts Per Million (PPM) at the front door before making entry. Enbridge Gas was dispatched to the scene.   A full assessment was completed and Firefighters recorded readings of 45 PPM of CO throughout the home. High pressure fans were set up to ventilate the structure while crews worked to identify the source. Both attached townhomes were checked and no CO was found inside either unit. The investigation confirmed that the furnace had failed and was producing levels of approximately 3000 PPPM of CO, most of which was exhausting outside. Enbridge decommissioned the furnace and crews cleared the scene at 09:47.   A reminder that on January 1, 2026, the Ontario Fire Code will require every home with a fuel burning appliance, fireplace, or attached garage to have Carbon Monoxide alarms near every sleeping area and on every floor. Working alarms save lives.   #OttNews

‼️‼️‼️PLEASE SHARE‼️‼️‼️ Today one of our Sector Chiefs encountered an 11-year-old skating on unsafe ice at Mahogany Landing in Manotick and asked him to leave due to open water. We’ve seen many community groups raise concerns about kids on unsafe ice. Please stay off the ice. No ice is safe ice. 🚫🧊🚫 #OttNews
