Ottawa – The City of Ottawa wants you to make sure you: Don’t Wait. Check the Date. This is the theme of Fire Prevention Week, which takes place October 9 to 15.


Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years. If you have a smoke alarm that is more than 10 years old, replace it with a newer model. To find out how old a smoke alarm is, look at the date of manufacture on the back of the alarm.


In Ontario, newly built homes must include a smoke alarm, combined with a strobe light, in each bedroom. Older homes are required only to have a smoke alarm on each floor; however, residents in older homes are encouraged to come as close as possible to the new standard.


Once you have a smoke alarm installed, be sure to test it regularly and make sure everyone in your home or office knows what to do when the alarm goes off.


Fire Prevention Week

Fire prevention officers from Ottawa Fire Services will set up information tables in various public locations citywide throughout the week. Ottawa residents are encouraged to seek them out at branches of the Ottawa Public Library, Home Depot stores and Tim Hortons restaurants.


For a complete list of locations, visit the City’s website, ottawa.ca.


For more information on City programs and services, visit ottawa.ca or call 3-1-1 (TTY: 613-580-2401). You can also connect with us through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
