Tulsa Fire Department Teams Up With Red Cross to Install Free Smoke Detectors

Having a working smoke detector increases your chance of survival by 50%. That’s why Tulsa Fire Department gathered volunteers to install free detectors to those in need.

• Sound the Safety Alarm: 158 smoke detectors were installed in Tulsa homes during the latest round of checks by TFD, Red Cross of Oklahoma and other volunteers who are passionate about fire safety. They went door to door installing the life saving devices at no charge.

• Detecting Danger: Along with the installations, they shared information on the causes of home fires, how to prevent them and what to do if one starts. Smoke detectors need to be checked every month and the batteries replaced once a year. Firefighters say that smoke detectors should be replaced every ten years but not everyone can afford that.
