Starting his service with the Asbury Community Fire Department, later moved to Illinois where he is a full-time career Firefighter/Paramedic in the western suburbs of Chicago. Eric has a bachelor's degree in Business Administration along with an associate degree in Emergency Medical Services. Eric is a certified Illinois Fire Inspector and works part-time as a Fire Inspector for the community he serves as a Firefighter/Paramedic.
I wanted to start this business because I see first-hand the lives that are lost, the tragedies families endure along with extensive property damage due to faulty or missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. On the job I frequently encounter homes that do not have working smoke detectors, batteries are missing, or just no detector at all. I believe this is a recipe for disaster and I want this business to help prevent these disasters.
I believe lives will be saved and property destruction will be reduced if proper working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are installed! I feel there is a great need and a required service to help the residents better protect themselves, their families, and their property!! I am here to help!

Home Fire Safety Solutions business practice is to follow the recommendations of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the Illinois Carbon Monoxide Alarm Detector Act (430 ILCS 135/) .
NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, has required as a minimum that smoke alarms be installed inside every sleeping room (even for existing homes) in addition to requiring them outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home. (Additional smoke alarms are required for larger homes.)
Carbon monoxide protection is required within 15 feet of any sleeping area.
