As the weather cools down, home fire risks heat up!🔥

Heating equipment is one of the leading causes of home fires during autumn and winter. Take a few minutes today to perform a quick safety check:

1️⃣ Space Heaters: Keep anything that can burn (curtains, blankets, furniture) at least 3 feet away. Plug them directly into wall outlets—never extension cords or power strips.
2️⃣ Fireplaces & Chimneys: Have your chimney inspected and cleaned annually by a certified professional before your first fire of the season. Always use a sturdy glass or metal screen.
3️⃣ Furnace Inspection: Replace your HVAC filters and have your heating system serviced to ensure it's running safely.

Stay warm, stay safe! 👨‍🚒

🚒 A Busy Night for the Troutville Volunteers! 🚒

Last night and into the early morning hours, Troutville Volunteer Fire Department responded to two separate structure fires.

🔥 Commercial Structure Fire – Daleville

At 10:18 PM, crews were dispatched to a local bank in Daleville for a reported commercial structure fire with smoke showing. Arriving units found smoke coming from all sides of the roof. Crews quickly located the source of the fire in an electrical room, where it had originated in a breaker panel. Thanks to the quick actions of firefighters, the fire was contained to that room.

Company 2 responded with 13 personnel, staffing Ladder 2, Engine 2, and Utility 2.

🔥 Residential Structure Fire

At 6:11 AM, crews were dispatched to a residential structure fire with reports of heavy smoke inside the home. Thankfully, all occupants were able to safely exit the residence with no injuries reported.

Firefighters located the fire in the basement near the home’s HVAC system and were able to contain it to that area.

Company 2 responded with 10 personnel, staffing Engine 2, Tanker 2, and Utility 2.

Among the photos from these incidents, you’ll see something a little different: a group of our volunteers sitting around the firehouse kitchen table, enjoying a hot cup of coffee and a biscuit after a long night.

That kitchen table is more than just a place to eat. It’s where we gather after calls to talk about what went right, what we can improve, share stories, laugh, and simply enjoy each other’s company.

After a night of answering calls and serving our community, sometimes those quiet moments around the table mean the most.

We’re proud of the dedication our volunteers continue to show, sacrificing their nights, sleep, and time with family to answer the call when our community needs

Crisp air, colorful leaves, and autumn yards! 🍂 While cleaning up your lawn, remember to stay safe around outdoor fires.

If you're doing seasonal yard work or burning brush:
💨 Check local wind conditions before lighting anything.
💧 Always keep a garden hose or water source nearby.
🚫 Never leave an outdoor fire unattended—even for a minute.

Let's keep our beautiful community safe together! 🚒✨

"Fire Prevention Week" isn’t just about testing smoke alarms; it’s also about stopping household hazards before they start!🔥

One of the fastest-growing fire risks right here in Botetourt County is something sitting in almost every home: BATTERIES. When damaged, overcharged, or improperly tossed away, they can easily short-circuit and spark aggressive fires in seconds.🔋

To properly dispose of batteries:
1️⃣ Do NOT put them in the trash or recycling bins (crushing them in garbage trucks or sorting facilities can spark fires).
2️⃣ Place batteries in a clear plastic bag.
3️⃣ Find a recycling location at https://batterynetwork.org/

Additional charge & storage tips:
✅ Always use the manufacturer-approved charger.
✅ Charge devices on hard, flat surfaces—never on beds, couches, or under pillows.
✅ Keep loose batteries in a cool, dry place away from metal objects like coins or paperclips.

Protecting our community starts at home! 🚒
