If you have recently moved into a new home and your smoke alarm looks like this, remove the red plastic ring immediately! It is used during construction to prevent any dust or particulate from getting into your alarm but must be removed to detect smoke or CO.

"When municipalities want to reduce fire deaths, fire prevention is the answer. When municipalities want to reduce injuries, fire prevention is the answer. When municipalities want to reduce dollar loss from fire, fire prevention is the answer." OMFPOA president Gary Laframboise

I am having a great time and learning lots here at the Fire Prevention Officers Association of BC Conference. My presentation on Tues was very well accepted, lots of questions yesterday and today about the CFAA. The conference facility Tigh-Na-Mara Resort and Spa is top notch.

64 years and the message hasn't changed. #electricalsafetymonth – at Mississauga, Ontario
Since May is National Electrical Safety Month, we thought we would look back at some of NFPA’s historic messaging; this classic public service advertisement from 1955 declares the dangers of frayed electrical cords and overloaded wiring systems. bit.ly/2DGHyak #NESM

We know you don't smoke in bed, in fact most people don't smoke indoors. Our cigarette fires are started outside; in gardens, flower pots, on fences. Butt out completely with sand or water. #SmokeSafely
One last cigarette before bed? Make sure you extinguish it properly and never smoke in bed. Put it out. Right out. #FireSafety #FireKills
