TO REPORT AN EMERGENCY: DIAL 9-1-1

Address / Smoke Alarm Program

The 100/100 Program

The 100/100 program has two focuses:

  • See that 100% of the homes have working smoke alarms with 10 year batteries
  • See that 100% of the homes have address numbers that are plainly visible for responding firefighters.

Working smoke alarms save lives and are crucial in alerting occupants of a fire. Improperly marked addresses or missing house numbers can lead to disastrous circumstances. Firefighters must be able to see the home’s address to be able to respond quickly.

Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms save lives! Through early detection of a fire, the occupants of the building have time to escape. Clackamas Fire District #1 recognizes the value of this early warning of a fire and is committed to getting smoke detectors into 100 percent of the homes in the fire district. To achieve this goal, the fire district ensures that each fire apparatus has a supply of smoke detectors that can be installed by the firefighters after an emergency call. Another way of achieving this goal is through the 100/100 program.

The fire district is able to help homeowners help protect themselves! The firefighters of Clackamas Fire District #1 are able to install smoke alarms for those who are physically unable to install them. Additionally, smoke alarms are available for those with limited financial resources. If you need assistance with installing a smoke alarm or would like to request assistance installing a smoke alarm please contact the Fire Prevention Division at 503-742-2660. You may also call or stop by the fire station nearest you.

Address Signs

Homeowners are encouraged to make sure their home has properly marked address numbers. The house numbers should be at least 4” tall and of a contrasting color that will stand out. Firefighters can help in making suggestions on a good location for home address numbers. Clackamas Fire only provides address signs to residents who reside within our coverage areas. If you reside outside Clackamas Fire’s coverage areas, please contact your local fire department for more information. Firefighters do not install the address signs. Once the sign(s) are completed, you will be contacted to pick up the address sign order at your closest fire station of your choosing.
