Smoke Alarms

Residential Smoke Alarms

The most common cause of fire deaths is smoke inhalation from burning materials. Many of the fires occur are at night during our most vulnerable time: sleep. Smoke alarms are early detection devices that emit an alert at the first hint of smoke. This alarm gives families time to get out safely. 

City of Decatur Fire/Rescue will provide smoke alarms, free of charge, to residents in the City of Decatur in the interests of enhancing community and life safety. Smoke Alarms will be installed by members of Decatur Fire/Rescue. Upon request, a free home fire-safety check will also be conducted at the time of installation. Trained personnel will point out hazards which are overlooked may cause a fire. Very often simple maintenance and housekeeping will make your home fire safe. If you are a resident in the City of Decatur and need a smoke alarm installed, tested, or checked in your home call 404-373-5092 or email gary.menard@decaturga.com.
