I mean... I would do it... if there was like no one left... but I'm just not really about all that excitement. I don't know if my heart could handle it! I'd be sitting, waiting for the bell to start ringing, nervous as a hen in a fox den! I met with one of the station coordinator once who showed me their event facilities. The top floor of the station is used for events. Community members can rent it out. It's a little drab, but hey, the funds support the fire station! This fire station receives a LARGE portion of it's funding through the community. I live down the street, and they are constantly busy. It is one of the busier stations in the area, from what I can tell. Thank you firefighters! For everything you do! Not just putting out fires either. They hold shrimp and oyster feasts at the station too!

That's right, three years of playing 'guess which ambulance might show up at my house if I dial 911". Oh, the suspense! The best thing about the new fire station is its modern touches, like having 4 WALLS! Yes, we will all miss the "open-air" feel the fire station displayed during its 3 year renovation---who can besmirch the architecturally compelling 3-wall design? But progress marches on, and Tenleytown is again a safe haven from wayward cigarette butts, leaky gas lines and malfunctioning refrigerator motors. It's good to have our station back.

You'd think that the board managing a fire department would know a thing or two about the fire…read moredepartment itself. With the CFRB, you'd be spectacularly mistaken. Comprised of multiple postgraduate degree-holders, the overwhelming majority of the board has not even a day of fire/rescue experience beyond responding to incidents at civilian homes and shrugging their shoulders upon pleas for help. And while a lack of experience in a field isn't necessarily detrimental to managerial efforts, the CFRB manages the fire department about as well as your annoying friend manages their bitcoin account. A typical board meeting (and these are open to the public) can be summarized in four components: 1. Telling the Fire Chief that he does not have the right to vote on pertinent issues 2. Arguing over the semantics of antiquated and exclusionary bylaws 3. Spirited debates over whether they can find it in their non-existent budget to afford firefighters basic human rights to safety and health 4. Making it 1/8 the way through their proposed agenda It's a strange thing that people can be so ignorant, condescending, and apathetic but still want to "run" a public safety service. But hey--it looks great on a lawyer's CV, right?

I especially enjoyed going on school trips to the fire station a relearning fire fighting techniques. This is definitely one place I passed by on my way to school, walking my dog, or simple seeing as a kid. I haven't had the pleasure of running into a burning building to save lives, but I do appreciate what the men and women do on a daily basis. Looking around my old stomping ground, Fire Department looks a bit different, but the neighborhood are here has changed. Especially the houses in sizes.

Got tuned into the need to check my fire extinguishers after lately seeing so many deaths and…read moredestruction by house fires in the news. Without an education about inspection or servicing my extinguishers, I just assumed the units would work when needed and I would know instinctively how to use them. So, 'attending to my home's extinguishers' never made it to my to-do list. After getting a brief education on youTube, I learned how critical fire extinguishers are to home safety. Since Fire Departments are so enthusiastic about smoke, carbon dioxide, and radon detectors, I was disappointed to learn that not only do they not execute recharging and inspections but the service rep had no referrals. Recommendations to homeowners regarding fire extinguisher protocols, inspection, and usage should rate the same attention as their smoke detector promotions. Workshops on when and how to use fire extinguishers should be standard in our schools, hospitals, airports, businesses, home owner insurer inspections, etc as well as part of our Fire Departments' community education programming, locally and nationwide. Think about the potential exposures to fire during and after impacts on structures by extreme weather events. Moreover, so many vehicles have recalls with warnings of spontaneous combustion while driving and/or when garaged. Even airplanes, electric vehicles, and electronic devices have increased instances of battery fires and explosions. Domestic airlines just established a mandate that all battery packs and battery-driven devices be displayed and NOT packed in cargo OR in overhead cabin luggage due to recent fires. Nonetheless, my online search turned up F&M FIRE PROTECTION with a five star rating for inspection and recharging fire extinguishers, among other services. This company should be on the Fire Department's resource list for local fire extinguisher services. Though I figured my units were too old to recharge, rather than default to an online purchase, my choice to visit in person was the right move. This location is a great value if you are in the market for fire extinguishers, inspection, and/or recharging. After shopping by browser, I found per unit rates to be same as online with the added value of receiving a full understanding of related data points you may not have considered. Though the building is tucked away in an industrial park, GPS can get you there without a hitch. Worth the side trip to be struck by the high-spirited, personable attention you get, delivered by a light-hearted team with a gallery of antiques on display.

I have been an ADT customer since 2013, but my recent experience with an equipment upgrade has been…read morea nightmare. Shortly after the upgrade, the main controller board failed. Despite my home being protected by an APC surge protector and a Ting monitoring system (which confirmed no surges occurred), the first technician insisted a power surge "fried" the board. Ironically, the system came back online just by wiggling a connector. When I requested a second opinion, ADT quoted a $59 service fee. However, the second technician informed me mid-job that I would be charged $240 per 30 minutes. I was presented with a bill for nearly $500 to troubleshoot a $170 part. The technician refused to leave my home until I signed the work order. While a manager eventually reduced the bill to $300 "under protest," I felt coerced and price-gouged. After 13 years of loyalty, I am extremely disappointed in this lack of integrity.

Neither of us would be charged. Caveat Emptor. Let the buyer beware. BN charged us almost $1000.00 for a few overpriced fire extinguishers.
