Fire departments spent their evening installing detectors all across Pottsville. Author: WNEP Web Staff Updated: 11:13 PM EDT April 26, 2021 POTTSVILLE, Pa. — Sound the alarm, save a life - families in Pottsville had smoke and carbon monoxide detectors installed in their homes on Monday night for free. The American Red Cross partnered with the Pottsville Fire Department to install the detectors. Firefighters installed a detector and a bed shaker at one home because a child in the family has cochlear implants. If there were a fire in the home, the alarm would go off, and an attachment would shake the child's bed.
