Carbon monoxide alarms are now available from the St. Louis Fire Department.
The Department recently received a $90,000 grant from the Assistance to Firefighter's Grant program to install carbon monoxide alarms. The grant funds were distributed through the Fire Prevention and Safety section of the grant program.
The program targets homes of seniors and those with small or unborn children. Medical experts believe that unborn babies, infants, children, senior citizens, and people with heart or lung problems are at greater risk for CO poisoning.
City of St. Louis residents interested in a CO alarm may call (314) 533-3406 ext. 2230.
