Alarm Tech, a family-owned life safety company based in Reading, has announced the launch of the Safe Homes, Safe Families initiative— a community effort to provide free smoke detectors to local residents in response to recent fire-related tragedies in the area.
With the goal of improving fire safety and saving lives, Alarm Tech will supply and help distribute smoke detectors to households across Robeson Township, with the help of Gibraltar Fire Company and Geigertown Fire Company. This initiative is open to all residents of Robeson Township and may expand throughout Berks County in the near future.
“As a company built by Robeson Township residents, the recent events in our community have hit incredibly close to home,” said Richard Fix, owner of Alarm Tech and retired assistant Chief at Gibraltar Fire Company. “This initiative is our way of giving back and doing what we do best— protecting families through proactive fire safety and education.”
Residents can sign up by filling out a short form online. Detector distribution will begin in coordination with local fire companies, with scheduled pick-up dates to be announced soon.
