Visual Smoke Alarms for Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Maryland
The Fire and Burn Safety Coalition of Maryland (FABSCOM) can help individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing acquire visual smoke alarms.
Smoke alarms are essential for all segments of our society. Members of the deaf and hard of hearing community are not served by conventional audible smoke alarms. Visual smoke alarms have been developed for those who can not adequately detect the sound of an audible alarm. Through the means of a bright strobe light as well as a supplemental audible alarm, visual smoke alarms will warn deaf and hard of hearing occupants of a hazardous situation.
Please complete the Visual Smoke Alarm Application if you wish to request a visual smoke alarm.
