Carbon Monoxide Week November 1-7 Even though carbon monoxide alarms have been required in Ontario homes and residential buildings since 2001, approximately 60% of Canadians do not have working carbon monoxide alarms in their homes. Each year, over 50 people die from carbon monoxide poisoning in Canada while many others are left severely affected by CO poisoning.
Did You Know? We Offer Civil Ceremonies In addition to obtaining a marriage licence at the The Town of Gravenhurst, we are also available to provide Wedding Officials to perform marriage ceremonies.

If you haven’t already installed carbon monoxide alarms, locate them adjacent to sleeping areas and at least 15 inches from fuel fired appliances. These alarms require some minimal maintenance. Test them once a month to ensure the audible device (horn) is working. As dust often migrates to ceilings and walls, be sure to vacuum them once a month as well. How old are the alarms? Check the back of the device for a manufacturers’ sticker indicating the manufacture date. If the alarm is 7-10 years old, it should be replaced. Nobody should be without working smoke or carbon monoxide alarms. If you find yourself unable to purchase a smoke or carbon monoxide alarm and are a resident of Gravenhurst, please contact the Gravenhurst Fire Department.
