A Community Safety Program from the Independence Fire Department
A working smoke alarm is the single most important tool to alert you and your family to a fire. The Independence Fire Department is committed to ensuring every home in our community is protected. Through our Smoke Alarm Program, we provide and install free smoke alarms for eligible residents.
Your First Line of Defense in a Fire
A fire can double in size every minute, and the smoke can be just as dangerous as the flames. A working smoke alarm provides the critical early warning needed to escape safely, doubling your chances of survival in a home fire. Don’t leave your family’s safety to chance.
What Our Free Program Includes
- One or more free 10-year sealed-battery smoke alarms.
- Professional and safe installation by trained personnel from the Independence Fire Department.
- A brief home safety consultation and instructions on how to test and maintain your new alarm.
Eligibility Requirements
This program is currently available to homeowners residing within the Independence Fire Department service area. If you are a renter, we encourage you to discuss smoke alarm requirements with your landlord or contact us for more information.
