Good morning,

As partners in fire prevention and public education, I wanted to share Burlington’s new CO awareness video. The homeowner featured in the video came into one of our stations to ask about replacing the CO alarm because it was beeping. The crew responded immediately to the family’s home where life-threatening levels of CO were discovered. I would greatly appreciate your help with sharing it around to your department colleagues and through any communication channels you have available.
