Fire District seeks
participants for smoke
alarm program
South Lane County Fire and Rescue
wants the public to sign up for its free
smoke alarm program. Thanks to a
cooperation effort with the Oregon
State Fire Marshal’s Offi ce and South
Lane Fire we are able to provide the
installation of smoke alarms to the
citizens of the fi re district for free.
Smoke alarms that are properly
installed and maintained play a
vital role in reducing fi re deaths and
injuries. Having a working smoke
alarm reduces the chance of dying in
a reported fi re by half.
Almost two-thirds of home fi re deaths
in 2005-2009 resulted from fi res in
homes with no smoke alarms or no
working smoke alarms.
South Lane will install smoke alarms
in every bedroom, outside each sepa-
rate sleeping area and on every level
of the home, including the basement.
To date we have installed over 250
smoke alarms in Cottage Grove,
Creswell and the surrounding areas.
Call today to schedule a date and
time to have a certifi ed smoke alarm
technician install the alarms. On
average it takes 15 minutes to install
the alarms. All of our smoke alarms
are powered by a lithium ion battery
that will last 10 years.
Call our headquarters at (541) 942-
4493 to sign up.
