Albemarle County Fire & Rescue offers a smoke detector program.
Residential smoke detectors are early warning devices to alert persons to a potential fire. Smoke detectors should be placed in living areas of the home including each bedroom (sleeping area) and in the hallway leading to the bedrooms. The Department of Fire Rescue now offers a limited free smoke detector program to bring single family residences into compliance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) recommendations. Free smoke detectors are available to homeowners who may not be able to afford/install detectors on their own.
Interested homeowners may call the Department of Fire Rescue at 434.296.5833 or complete a Request for Information or Services form.
