Request Fire Education or Community Outreach

One way the Dayton Fire Department serves our community is by providing fire prevention education for our residents.  The Dayton Fire Department has partnered with Dayton Elementary, public and private preschools and local daycares for years, educating our youngest population about fire safety.

Residents can request a member of the Dayton Fire Department be present for an event, or request a tour of the fire department.  Residents can also request assistance from the fire department with installing battery operated smoke detectors and CO detectors, and fire extinguishers. (All requests are based on availability) Please click the button to submit a request.

Pool Filling

The Dayton Fire Department is unable to fill private swimming pools. We recommend Dayton residents call a private water delivery company that can provide clear, chlorinated water free of equipment-damaging rust and minerals – one that is specifically designed for swimming pools.  Have a fun and safe swimming season!
