Once registered, either Lubbock Fire Rescue crews or American Red Cross volunteers will contact residents directly to schedule a convenient installation time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), working smoke alarms reduce the risk of dying in a home fire by more than 50 percent. Despite this, nearly three out of five home fire deaths occur in properties without working smoke alarms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">The installation &amp; sign-up process is quick, easy, and completely free to residents. Teams will ensure alarms are properly placed and provide information on maintaining them for long-term effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Lubbock Fire Rescue encourages all residents to take advantage of this program and help make Lubbock a safer community for everyone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"copyright |\">Copyright 2025 KCBD.
