3 SMOKE ALARM
4 The majority of fatal home fires happen at night, when people are asleep. Contrary to popular belief, the smell of smoke may not wake a sleeping person. The poisonous gases and smoke produced by a fire can numb the senses and put you into a deeper sleep
5 Smoke Alarm Every home in Ontario must have a working smoke alarm it is the law! Household smoke alarms sound an alarm, alerting you to a fire. By giving you time to escape, smoke alarms cut your risk of dying in a home fire nearly in half.
6 Whose responsibility is it? Homeowners: It is the responsibility of homeowners to install and maintain smoke alarms on every storey of their home and outside sleeping areas. Landlords: It is the responsibility of landlords to ensure their rental properties comply with the law.
7 How to maintain your smoke alarm Install a new battery at least once a year. If the low battery warning beeps, replace the battery immediately. Never remove the battery for use in other devices. Dust can clog the smoke alarm, so carefully vacuum the inside of the battery powered unit using the soft bristle brush. Smoke alarms do wear out, so if you think your alarms are more than 10 years old, replace them with new ones.
8 Violation of Smoke Alarm Regulation Based on the Ontario Fire Regulations, failure to comply with the fire code regarding smoke alarm requirements could result in: Minor Cases: a fine of $235 Serious Cases: Individual: a fine of up to $50,000 Corporations: a fine of up to $100,000

An Inspector also to bring with them anyone he or she considers advisable to assist. (Police, bylaw enforcement, animal control, building Inspector etc.). Obstructing an Assistant to the Fire Marshal is an offence under this Act and anyone doing so may be subject to prosecution.

Issues that affect the immediate life safety of occupants must be corrected immediately or as soon as reasonably possible. An Inspector will re-inspect the property after the allowed time frame to confirm the violation has been corrected. The owner of the property will be subject to a re- inspection fee. If a violation is not able to be corrected within the time frame supplied (awaiting special ordered parts, awaiting service by Fire Protection Company etc, awaiting Building Department approval), a Letter of Commitment spelling out the violations, the steps being taken to correct the violation and the approximate time frame, must be completed and submitted to the Chief Fire Prevention Officer for approval
