City of Carlsbad logoSmoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms save lives. Carlsbad residents can take advantage of two separate programs designed to help them stay safe at home.

Free smoke alarm installation: The City of Carlsbad Fire Department is partnering with the Red Cross to install free smoke alarms in residents’ homes and share important fire safety information. Call 442-339-2665 or email firepreventionpublic@carlsbadca.gov to sign up.

Free carbon monoxide alarms for adults 62 or older: The City of Carlsbad Fire Department is partnering with the Burn Institute to install carbon monoxide alarms in the homes of older adults in Carlsbad. Carbon monoxide poisoning is known as the “invisible killer” and poses a threat to people and pets. Installing and maintaining a carbon monoxide alarm at your home provides an early warning and reduces the risk of serious injury and death from carbon monoxide.
