CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas – In conjunction with National Fire Prevention Week, the Corpus Christi Fire Department (CCFD) will receive smoke detectors donated by State Farm Insurance.
National Fire Prevention Week 2024 runs from Sunday, October 6th to Saturday, October 12th.
Smoke alarms play an important role in fire safety by detecting small particles in the air. When these particles reach a certain level, an alarm is activated, allowing you and your family to safely evacuate and contact emergency services. Smoke alarms are essential to saving lives.
Smoke alarms will be available to Corpus Christi homeowners living in homes requesting alarms while supplies last. (If you live in a rental house or apartment, please apply through the management company.)
Reasonable accommodations will be provided upon request and in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. If you require assistance or would like to request a reasonable accommodation, please call us in advance at 361-826-1655.
