Fire Prevention Week is winding down, and Comox and Courtenay firefighters want to make sure you have working smoke detectors.
They are teaming with Domino’s Pizza to reward residents who have working smoke alarms in their homes with free pizza.
Friday night, between 5pm and 9pm, when Comox and Courtenay residents in single residential homes, duplexes and townhouses call Domino’s Pizza, their dinner could be delivered with the help of firefighters.
They’ll arrive by fire truck and inspect household smoke alarms to make sure they are working.
Those with functioning smoke alarms will get their pizza for free. Households will be chosen at random and as resources are available.
If a smoke alarm requires new batteries, the firefighters will replace them. For eligible residents without a working smoke alarm, firefighters may arrange for a return visit to install a battery-powered smoke alarm for free.
This is the ninth year the Courtenay Fire Department has partnered with Domino’s during Fire Prevention Week. Comox Fire Rescue joined the initiative in 2020.
Fire Prevention Week wraps tomorrow, with the focus this year to educate everyone about using lithium-ion batteries safely.
