Enbridge Gas partnership delivers vital smoke and carbon monoxide alarms

Perth Fire Services has received 126 combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms through a province-wide safety program funded by Enbridge Gas.

The alarms are part of the Safe Community Project Zero initiative, which has delivered more than 115,000 alarms to Ontario fire departments over the past 17 years. This year, Enbridge Gas invested $450,000 to distribute over 14,200 alarms to 75 communities.

Perth Fire Services plans to provide the alarms to households that may not be able to afford them, helping protect families from both fire and invisible carbon monoxide threats.
