To the communities of the Shingletown area from Company 20


Winter precautions Is your flue clean and working properly?  It is a good idea to have a professional inspect your wood stove/fireplace prior to winter.


Is your carbon monoxide detector working?  Do you know you need one in every room?


Be sure to wrap your outside faucets or cover them to avoid a burst pipe when the temperature hits the freezing mark.


These are just a few tips to prepare for winter, check our home page for more links and information.


Is your address visible for responding emergency personnel?  Valuable time can be lost spent looking for an address. You can order a reflective address sign by using the links on our home page. 


Shingletown Volunteer Fire Department Company 20, together with CAL FIRE Station 22, are ready to respond and defend our community and surrounding areas when they are called.  If you see them in the community, please thank them for their service.
