A message from your fire safety experts: Check your smoke alarms when you change your clocks for Daylight Saving Time​. Press and hold – you should hear a loud beep if it is good. #portlandmefirefighters #portlandme #portlandmaine #firesafety #fireeducation #IAFF #IAFFSafetyTips

Congratulations to class 2022-29 as they pass their 1 year probation tomorrow! They’ll trade in their orange helmet shields for a helmet shield with their badge number. “Probies” no more. Welcome to the #firefamily #portlandmefirefighters #portlandme #portlandmaine

Thank you Edward A. Kelly and International Association of Fire Fighters for fighting to keep firefighters safe and protected against harmful toxic #pfas that are in our turnout gear. Our job is dangerous enough, we shouldn’t have to worry about our gear.

#whileyouweresleeping your #portlandmefirefighters were alerted to a fire that went to 2 alarms. Fast response times and aggressive firefighting by #portlandsbravest kept the fire from getting any worse.
