In a continuing effort to educate the public in fire safety measures, the Algonquin-Lake in the Hills Fire Protection District offers home safety inspections by request to residents at no cost. District personnel will visit your home to review your smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, heating devices, electrical cords and all exits to your home. As your safety is our number 1 goal, our department also conducts free smoke detector checks on request. In service crews will visit your home and check to see that smoke detectors are in proper working order and that all the devices are within the manufacturers recommended in service time.

For those residents who qualify, the Fire Department will furnish and install smoke detectors and batteries free of charge. To request either of these services fill out the Public Education Event Request Form and someone from our Public Education Department will contact you to schedule your inspection.
