Smoke Alarm Installation Program

The Fire Department is working cooperatively with the non-profit Illinois Fire Safety Alliance and Office of the State Fire Marshal to provide no-cost smoke alarms to residents of the Village of Barrington. This program provides smoke alarms and fire prevention materials to Illinois fire departments to assist in educating residents on fire safety, as well as provide them with life-saving devices in their home. Residents who wish to receive more information about the smoke alarm installation program, please contact (847) 304-3600.

CPR CLasses

The Barrington Fire Department is facilitating American Heart Association Heartsaver CPR courses. CPR – or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation – is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.
