Have working smoke alarms on each storey and adjacent to all sleeping areas in your RV, Trailer, mobile home or cottage. A well prepared and practised fire escape plan will also increase your chances of safely escaping during a fire emergency #FireSafetyFriday

If using fireworks on Canada Day, use safely, and in accordance with the City of Guelph fireworks bylaw. ow.ly/WgUm50VO2wT #FireSafetyFriday

Smoke alarms save lives! Install, test, and maintain #FireSafetyFriday

Smoke alarms save lives and are the law. Test your alarms monthly, change batteries annually and replace expired alarms. #FireSafetyFriday

Thanks to @TeamKerzner and @ONsafety for the Fire Protection Grant funding to help keep our @GPFFA467 FFs safe. New SCBA washers have been installed and will decontaminate the deadly carcinogens from our air packs, masks, and cylinders. @cityofguelph @ONFireChiefs @barnoldfire

Crews packing up after a successful water rescue. Earlier this evening, GFD responded with the boat to Royal City Park at Gordon for a man in the Speed River. Firefighters used a Stokes basket to remove the patient and transferred care to @GWParamedic. #Guelph

Having a “staycation” this March Break? Develop your home fire escape plan & practise it with the entire family. #FireSafetyFriday

When cooking, stand by your pan and watch what you heat. Never leave your cooking unattended #FireSafetyFriday

Protect the one you love. Prevent carbon monoxide poisoning and clear snow and ice from your natural gas meter and vents. Do it now! The City of Guelph

Please keep fire hydrants near your home clear of snow and ice. It helps firefighters locate and hook up our hose for water supply to save valuable time when every second counts! The City of Guelph

Help us help you. In a fire situation, every second counts. Please keep nearby hydrants free and clear of snow accumulation. @cityofguelph @barnoldfire @guelphpffaprez

@GuelphFire @GWParamedic Fantastic work by @GuelphFire personnel affecting the rescue. Hoping the resident is okay and all are safe. @cityofguelph @GPFFA467

Fire suppression crews are on the scene of an apartment fire on Westwood Rd. One occupant has been rescued and is being assessed by @GWParamedic. Please avoid the area.

Its the perfect time to prepare and practise your home fire escape plan. Always have two ways out and never go back inside #FireSafetyFriday

Practice fire safety this Winter Solstice with space heaters, wood stoves and fireplaces. Keep at least one metre (3 feet) distance between your heat source and combustibles, like paper and fabrics. Make the holidays happy with working smoke and CO alarms!

Holidays are stressful. Go slow in the kitchen and avoid being a statistic. 17% of fires in Ontario are cooking-related, mostly caused when the stove is left unattended. Be mindful when cooking and never leave the kitchen while using a stove. Working smoke alarms save lives!
