Some Woodstonians got a free dinner last night, thanks to the Woodstock Fire Department.
WOODSTOCK - If you ordered a pizza for dinner you might have had an unexpected guest on your doorstep.
Fire trucks were following pizza delivery vehicles in the Friendly City last night.
Lisa Woods, Public Information Coordinator with the Woodstock Fire Department says they were checking homes for working c-o alarms.
"If the lucky homeowner has working carbon monoxide alarms in the right locations of their homes we're going to pay for their dinner."
Woods says the c-o alarms must be set up outside the bedrooms.
"If you have one sleeping area, you need to have it in an area where all of the bedrooms are going to hear it at the same time. If you have sleeping areas in two separate areas you would need to c-o alarms."
Malfunctioning fuel appliances like furnaces and fireplaces can leak the deadly colourless, odourless, tasteless gas.
