Fire Prevention

Chimney Fire Safety. Its starting to get cold outside and its about time to start up the fireplace. There are some safety considerations we would like you to keep in mind...

  • Before you start using your fireplace frequently, have your chimney inspectedfor the build up of creosote. Using chimney sweeping logs are useful but not as effective of haveing a technician come out to your house and inspect and clean the flu.
  • Make sure the top of the chimney is clear from debris and is able to vent properly, using the appropriate vent cap.
  • Install a carbon monoxide detector around the area of the fireplace to detect if fuels are leaking into the living space.
  • Never leave a fire unattended.

Station Tours

Ever wanted to see what the inside of a firehouse looks like? Well come over and hang out with us for awhile. Crews will be more than happy to show any person of any age around the station and on the rigs. Ask us any questions on how we do things or why. If you want to bring the class or a group to the station, we’ll show them around too! For more information or want to schedule a tour, call any of our stations that you would like to see and make one today!

North County Fire / EMS have the capabilities of coming to your home, work, or school and teach a wide range of classes to any person of any age. For example, we can teach fire safety, stop-drop-and-roll, how to use portable fire extinguishers, first aid, CPR, AED, emergency preparedness, and motor vehicle safety. Just call the Admin office at (360) 652-1246 and find out more information on how to setup a class.

Address Program

Are we able to find you in an emergency? In an emergency, every second counts and there is no better way to help us out than to ask a reflective address sign. It’s easy. Call any of our stations and say you want one! We ask for a $12 donation and if supply is available it will only take a day to make. Not only that, but we will even install it for you. So don’t wait for the emergency to find out that your address is not visible from the road.

Burn Regulations

Burn permits are required. North County Regional Fire Authority participates with the Fire Marshals office so we have capabilities to issue a burning permit for residential applications. For more information contact any of our stations or go to the Snohomish Outdoor Burning Information site or call the hotline at 425-388-3508.
