Operating portable generators safely go hand in hand with having adequate Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms in your home. CO is a silent killer and a working CO alarm my be your only alarm when deadly CO is present. Remember - NEVER NEVER operate a generator or any gas powered tool indoors. When in doubt, seek out the advice of your local fire department - we would rather answer your safety question and prevent the emergency.
The Greater Springfield Volunteer Fire Department is actively seeking volunteers of all backgrounds for Firefighter, EMT and FireCorps Administrative roles.
