Thanks to a $25,000 grant from Farm Credit Canada and the support of local ratepayers SDFD was able to purchase a Jordair Mini-Kat 6 compressor and filling station for breathing air cylinders. Thanks also to Firechek Protection Services for a great install.

It can't happen to me. It can’t happen to me. But home fires can happen. Working smoke alarms save lives. Test your smoke alarm monthly. #FireSafety

[William R. Hunter @ChiefBillHunter]

Have YOU checked YOUR Smoke & CO alarms? (It's easy btw)

Fires grow & spread rapidly...so fast, that unless you get the early detection of a fire from your #WorkingSmokeAlarm you (& your family) might not escape in time.

#SmokeAlarms are only good for 10 years, please take the time to check and ensure they are in date.

Burn ban in place for Dufferin County effective immediately!
The Fire Departments of Dufferin have issued a fire ban, prohibiting all open-air burning. This includes properties with approved burn permits but does not include areas within the town of Orangeville.

We encourage all Ontarians to take fire safety seriously – your lives depend on it. Too many fatal fires had no working smoke alarm in the home at the time of the fire. A working smoke alarm is not a ‘nice to have,’ it’s the law. #FireSafety

Make sure YOU clear off all your windows, including the windshield! If you can't see it, how are you going to avoid it! Please #DriveSafe! @NorfolkCountyCA #NorfolkOPP ^es

[Wellington North Fire Service @wellnorthfire]

Gear up for ❄️WINTER, know the DIFFERENCE between a weather ❗WATCH and ⚠️WARNING?

Watch = be prepared. "When you have all of the ingredients to make cupcakes out on the counter." Warning = take action. "When the cupcakes are ready to eat." #ONstorm #WellingtonNorth

Close the Door - The more you have between you and the fire, the safer you'll be. A closed door can give you extra seconds by blocking the smoke from entering the room. #closebeforeyoudoze ^FL
