The American Red Cross of Southern Nevada invites you to call (702) 697-1707  to make an appointment to have a free smoke alarm installed in your home.
 
All smoke alarm installations in Nevada are completely free of charge. 
 
The Red Cross will be installing smoke alarms throughout Southern Nevada as part of the Home Fire Preparedness Campaign which aims to reduce injuries and fatalities from home fires by 25%.  
 
Red Cross volunteers will also be distributing fire safety information and home fire escape plans. 
 
On average in Southern Nevada, the American Red Cross responds to a home fire every 20 hours.
