October 10, 2025,The Gasport Chemical Hose Company, Inc. extended sincere appreciation to Irr Supply for its generous donation of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a contribution that directly supports community safety.

The donated detectors will be placed on each of the department’s fire trucks, ensuring firefighters have them available when responding to calls where residents may lack functioning or installed detectors.

“These devices are vital to life safety,” the department said, emphasizing that smoke and carbon monoxide detectors save lives by providing early warnings during emergencies.

As cooler weather arrives, the department is reminding residents to check their detectors, replace batteries if needed, and ensure units are not expired. Regular maintenance and timely replacement, firefighters noted, are simple steps that can make the difference between life and tragedy.
