Smoke Alarm Program
Canby Fire applies each year to receive smoke alarms from the Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal Smoke Alarm Installation Program. The purpose of this program is to provide smoke alarms to Oregon fire agencies to install in residences that are unprotected. Because we are limited on the amount of alarms we receive each year, we kindly ask that only those with a financial need contact us for an alarm.
Canby Fire crews are more than happy to help ANYONE install or check their current or new smoke alarms or carbon monoxide detectors. Please call our main station at 503-266-5851 to let us know you are interested.
