Richmond Hill Fire

✨ Eid Mubarak! Wishing you peace, joy, and blessings today and always. ✨

An RHFES firetruck in each ward at a location that stands as a pillar in the @myrichmondhill we all know and love - chosen by your Mayor and Councillors.🚒💚 Our custom colouring sheets are now available on our trucks & at local events. Collect them all! instagram.com/reel/DWHZn1GEX…

Another great training day at the RTC supporting the OFC’s Fire Officer III pilot course last week. We added a bit of “reality” to the mock emergency management scenario - the iconic IMS coloured vests. Proud to help build strong fire service leaders. 🔥

Happy 75th birthday Sparky the Fire Dog! Your dance moves are (almost) as epic as your fire & life safety knowledge. instagram.com/reel/DWCl2zbEX…

Happy Nowruz! Wishing everyone a bright, healthy, and joyful start to the new year. May this season bring renewal, hope, and fresh beginnings for you and your loved ones.

🍀 We’re recycling another #StPatricksDay video - because smoke‑alarm safety never goes out of date either! Test alarms monthly, replace batteries as needed, and make sure you have one on every level of your home. Early warning saves lives.

🍀 We’re recycling a #StPatricksDay cooking safety video because this message never gets old. Unattended cooking is still the leading cause of home fires. Stay in the kitchen, keep combustibles away, turn burners off - and skip cooking if you’ve been drinking. #HappyStPaddysDay

Kicking off March Break & Sparky’s 75th Birthday Week with a visit to @RichmondHillPL - what a fantastic turnout! Find our Fire Prevention team at Central Library, all week from 1-4pm.

⚠️ Recall Alert - The Modofo Tool 5‑in‑1 Smoke/CO Alarm has been recalled due to a potential failure to alert in an emergency recalls-rappels.canada.ca/en/alert-recal… Unfortunately, many alarms sold online aren’t certified. Always choose listed, tested products to keep your home safe.

A working Carbon Monoxide alarm gave a family in Alton Village of #BurlON early warning of dangerous CO levels in their home. They called 911 and got out safely. 🚨 Reminder: CO alarms are required on every level and outside sleeping areas: burlington.ca/co

RHFES was proud to be part of the OPP’s International Women’s Day event today. Huge shoutout to Assistant Deputy Chief Allie Sornberger for representing us on a panel of incredible women in emergency services. Inspiring voices - powerful leadership.

In the event of a fire you have under two minutes to get out safely. A WORKING smoke alarm notifies you that the clock has started on your escape. Today, we ask that you change your clocks AND change your smoke alarm batteries. Spring forward AND protect your family.🔋📆

Honouring the women in our department who serve, support, and lead across every division of the fire service. Your dedication strengthens our community every day. 💜 #IWD #givetogain

Change your smoke alarm batteries and protect what matters most: the people you love. Sunday, March 8th is more than a clock change—it's a reminder to prioritize your family's safety. It takes minutes - put down your phone & do it now!🔋

🌧️ Environment Canada has issued a weather warning, and TRCA has a Flood Outlook in effect. Rising water levels + melting snow = dangerous conditions. ⚠️ Stay back from waterways and off all ice - it’s unstable and unsafe. Stay alert and stay safe this weekend.
