Fire prevention visits
Within the framework of the risk coverage plan and of bringing the MRC des Laurentides plan into play, the ministry's number one objective is prevention. To meet this objective, the Mont-Tremblant Fire Safety Department makes prevention visits to residences and businesses to make recommendations and collect data to register the potential risks in each residence and business in the territory. This is done to facilitate the work of rescue teams in the event of an alert, because of their improved knowledge of the milieu.
The urban visits will be done mainly on weekend afternoons during the firefighters' duty periods. For rural areas, the visits will be done mainly during the day on weekdays. The owner or renter should anticipate between 15 and 30 minutes for these visits.
During a residential visit, the Fire Safety Department will check, in particular, all the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, portable fire extinguishers, heating systems, electrical installations, the presence of dangerous materials, and various risks related to fire safety.
If you are absent when the firefighter visits, a notice will be hung on your door and all you have to do is contact the Fire Department to make an appointment.
Please note that the members of the firefighting team will be wearing their uniforms and will have an identity card from the Mont-Tremblant Fire Safety Department.
