A free smoke detector and installation is available for your home through the American Red Cross. The Red Cross is offering free smoke alarms for those who cannot afford them or for those who are unable to install a smoke alarm. There are also some specialized bedside alarms for individuals who are hard-of-hearing. The effort is part of the Red Cross’s Home Fire Campaign to reduce the number of deaths and injuries caused by home fires by 25% over five years.
